The Soil and Health

More about the book

The principles of organic agriculture are at the forefront of this influential work, which critiques industrial farming's impact on soil fertility and natural balance. Sir Albert Howard, drawing from his experiences in India, connects the health crises in crops, livestock, and human beings to the degradation of the Earth's soil. His urgent call to respect and restore soil health remains relevant today, resonating with advocates of sustainable practices and those wary of chemical agriculture's long-term effects.
