The
Non-Toxic Farming Handbook
by
Philip A. Wheeler, Ph.D. & Ronald B. Ward
In this readable, easy-to-understand handbook, the authors successfully
integrate the diverse techniques and technologies of classic organic

available non-toxic tools and when they are effective, you will be able
to react to your specific situation and growing conditions. The result
will be an ever-improving soil fertility, healthy crops that provide
their own insect and disease resistance, fields without the curse of
weeds, and the satisfaction that you are a true steward of the land.
Covers fertility inputs, in-the-field testing, foliar feeding,
refractometers, tillage, livestock nutrition, moon cycles and subtle
energies, and more. The Non-Toxic
Farming Handbook is the result of a lifetime of
eco-consulting. Softcover, 238
pages. #6339, $25.00 Order now.
