Have you ever heard of organic farming? Of course! Ok. Then have you ever heard of natural farming? What is natural farming? What is the difference between organic and natural farming?
The word of natural farming started to use by Masanobu Fukuoka. After studying and working as a microbiologist and agricultural scientist, he started natural farming in 1938. The feature of his farming is no tilling, no pulling out weeds, no pesticides, and no fertilizer. Simply put “do nothing” farming.
You can choose English subtitles.
When I started to study this eccentric farming, I getting realize this is the most scientific, economic, and sustainable farming. I began to apply this method in my garden and planted rye seeds in October, last year. Today I harvest and dry them. As master Fukuoka said, we can harvest without doing anything.
Do nothing might be the key to sustainability.
An intrigued approach and makes a lot of sense. Thanks sensei Polat from Turkey class 2015
Hi Polat-san,
Thank you for your comment.
I’m glad that you like this farming.
P.S. Please say hello to Cuneyit-san.
We can deduce cost by practicing this method in rice production. In Myanmar, farmers used straw to reduce cracks in shipping eggs. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Gu-san,
Thank you for your comment. Straw also can use for egg shipment.
Let’s make an eco-recycling system!
I am happy to hear about you, From your lecture I decide to open a small company, working on Agriculture, Forest and Environment issues, We are focus on organic farming, (vegetables, rice, seedlings production, etc) it has give us a potential power and motivation to go further with it,

Hi Caroa-san,
Thank you for sharing your practice.
Using green manure is a good alternative to chemical fertilizer.
It’s cheaper and healthier than conventional ways.
Makes a lot of sense, good for rejuvenating the ecosystem.
