Great information Pede. My one friend who farms (large scale) was bitching the other day about the increase in the cost of fertilizer. He was saying more farms are going under…horrible stuff. It’s getting critical. I’m building raised gardens now and was going to use wood framing. Cost of wood= 💰
one of the most important tib bits is bocking 14, its sterile cultivar of comfrey, its a super deep rooting plant that you can cut back 3 times a year and add to your compost pile or even feed to animals in small amounts(it contains the same stuff rhubarb does and will give animals kidney stones if you feed them too much of it) its high in nutrients and even if the animals shit most of them out its going to be going from the bottom layers of the soil to the top,
if every farmer had a patch that they cut back to add to a compost heap they could massively improve their land with a tiny investment

its also easy to propagate via cuttings
Awesome. Adding it to my mix. Taking this pretty seriously at this point so appreciated. 👍🏽
