Biodynamic – What does it mean?
|
Biodynamics is an advanced organic method of growing, first introduced by Dr Rudolf Steiner in 1924.
In Australia, Biodynamic farming is practised on over two million acres (0.8 million hectares), a development that is unprecedented worldwide.
Biodynamic gardening methods are used by many people throughout Australia.
Biodynamics involves the use of a wide range of techniques including the all-important Biodynamic preparations, a series of biological materials that powerfully develop soil microbial activity, root growth, humus formation and light metabolism.
Other techniques include Biodynamic composting, careful cultivation methods, and the use of a scientifically based moon and zodiac planting chart to enhance production. Biodynamic soils become progressively darker, more friable and fertile, and develop open structure and fertility to greater depths. Biodynamic plants develop superior flavour and nutritive qualities. Biodynamic fruits and vegetables stay fresh longer than conventional or (non-BD) organic produce.
