This classic has been out of print for many years and we thought we were never to see it again. However, a source has been found for this classic by one of this century's most influential and radical agrarian thinkers.

One Straw Revolution describes the events that led to the development of Fukuoka's natural farming methods. In the process of discussing his methods we are made to question the current slavish devotion to modern methods with their increasing reliance on chemical fertilisers, pesticides and ever larger machinery. While ostensibly a book about farming, it is so much more, putting forward a zen approach to our relationship with land and farming. Everyone should read this book.
