- Good exercise for the body while farming crops or livestock is better than any physical activity
- Almost free or very cheap price of production as no high inputs are required, no need for sophisticated technology
- Mostly organic, free of chemicals like fertilizers, pesticides, weedicides, etc

- The native people have much traditional knowledge of food production, so it is conserving the precious indigenous knowledge
- Best suited to the family system, all members of the family can take part, a collective power and collective wisdom
- It is an integrated system, integrated with other types of farming like livestock, honey bees, silkworm, aquaculture, etc. integrated farming system
- Biodiversity of all types is supported by such a production system
- The best way to resist the factory farming
- The big companies will shrink and there will be no deforestation

Produce your own food. Agriculture is a prayer, yoga, and meditation as well as the best physical exercise. When you grow/produce your own, you know what you are producing and what you are consuming.




Produce your own food, stay healthy and keep the Mother Earch healthy
