BDF - Bio Dynamic Farming
The Bio Dynamic Research centre looks at combining the botanic research of bio dynamic farming and the collection and archiving of botanic work produced through the modular intervention
Bio Dynamic Farming - Biodynamics has much in common with other organic approaches – it emphasises the use of manures and composts and excludes the use of artificial chemicals on soil and plants. Methods unique to the biodynamic approach include its treatment of animals, crops, and soil as a single system, an emphasis from its beginnings on local production and distribution systems, its use of traditional and development of new local breeds and varieties. Some methods use an astrological sowing and planting calendar. Biodynamic agriculture uses various herbal and mineral additives for compost additives and field sprays; these are prepared using methods that are more akin to sympathetic magic than agronomy.
