The Birth of the Biodynamic Method
8 lectures plus discussions and addresses by Rudolf Steiner

With these talks, Steiner created and launched 'biodynamic' farming - a specific form of agriculture which has come to be regarded as 'premium organic'. However, the agriculture Steiner speaks of in this book is much more than organic, and involves working with the spiritual dynamics of the cosmos as well as those of the earth. To facilitate this, Steiner prescribes specific 'preparations' for the soil, as well as other distinct methods born from his profound understanding of the material as well as spiritual worlds.

Bio-Dynamic Farming Practice

Sustainable Agriculture
by Friedrich Sattler & Eckard von Wistinghausen

At a time when conventional farms are largely run on business or industrial lines, the idea of a farm as a self-sustaining living organism is a clear departure and one which is becoming increasingly important where the quality of food is concerned.  This book shows how, by combining the best traditional farming methods with up-to-date management skills and appropriate crop and animal husbandry, farmers can begin to put this idea into practice and create a system which is both productive and ecological.
