Customer Rating: Summary: Okay Film about Biodynamic Farming and it's Applications Comment: This last summer I spent working on a biodynamic farm, while I was there I watched this video. It has a very basic (and good if not a little big long) introduction to biodynamic agriculture (the way of farming invented by Rudolf Steiner - a mystic/occultist who lived in the 1800s) especially as applied in India.
Customer Rating: Summary: Inspiring and outstandingly up front. Comment: Anyone concerned with life in this planet should see this movie. The best I've watched on biodynamics. Customer Rating: Summary: Self sufficiency in a Peak Oil world Comment: In a world of rapidly growing population and dwindling resources, this film offers hope. Modern agriculture is the process of turning petroleum into food via fertilisers, pesticides and the use of powerful tractors. But as oil and gas production begins to decline, and soils become exhausted, the world faces an imminent food crisis. The recent oil spikes and food price inflation of 2008 herald the disaster to come. However, Peter Proctor shows how soils can be rebuilt and crop yields boosted again by bio-dynamic methods that begin with composting based on cow manure. One farmer at at time, he is rebuilding the food production capacity of India, with a view to spreading the methods world-wide. But time is short. This could be the most important film you ever see. An inspirational film for all interested in Organic food, Environmentalism, Peak Oil and Self-Sufficency. Customer Rating: Summary: How to Save the World Comment: The DVD presents an inspiring picture of the work that Peter Proctor has done in India. I just returned from visiting one of the farmers who he has trained in India and it is clear to me that Peter was very successful in sharing the power of Biodynamics. I was most impressed . Customer Rating: Summary: Surprisingly Entertained Comment: Highly recommended for those interested in: our food supply, a solution to GMO farming, and GMO farmings long term effects on the soil, environment and farmers. In an entertaining way, it illustrates an active solution taking place in India right now; and is inspiring to watch. I also recommend "The Future of Food" to further understand the problem. Both are entertaining and can educate you on what is really happening to food and farmers in the USA and other countries. You will feel better, knowing a solution does exist after watching this movie!
