According to World Watch Institute, about 1,000 agricultural pests are now immune to pesticides. Yet our shadow doesn’t allow us to go back to the obvious solution, organic farming. At the Tree of Life we have worked out ways for a farmer to make a conversion to organic in one season’s time with the use of micro-organisms. For topsoil to regenerate one inch naturally takes about 500 years. Our society’s agriculture practice of growing grains primarily to feed animals creates an eroding of the soil at about thirty times the rate it takes to regrow one inch. Some 2 million acres are lost every year, and even more become depleted in minerals and nutrients. At the Tree of Life we have worked out a veganic organic farming system that actually adds minerals and rejuvenates the soil. We also have a veganic farming apprenticeship because it is so important these teachings get spread throughout the world. Vegan, organic agriculture is sustainable, while intensive commercial agriculture with pesticides and herbicides is not.
