MICRO FARMING HOW-TO – MARKETING:  ATTRA (http://attra.ncat.org) reports continued reason to treat soil as micro eco-farmers always have… with lots of organic matter, because of global warming. Their quote “As global warming takes hold, all computer models predict periods of greater rainfall intensity as well as drought. Farmers can prepare their farmland for this by increasing the percentage of organic matter in their soils. Well-tested techniques to do this are no-till (organic farmers can use roller crimpers!), minimum till, compost applications, crop rotations, and cover crops and green manures.” Micro Eco-Farmers can also use this information in their marketing. Consumers feel great knowing their purchases help reverse global warming. See the longer article at the Center for the Micro Eco-Farming Movement on how eco-farming is one of the most important methods for reversing global warming. – www.MicroEcoFarming.com
