This book is about ways to produce crops that are truly sustainable. Locally, with nature and in line with circularity. The key to optimal plant growth and the prevention of infestations lies in the hands of growers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDissatisfied with the weakened requirements for the organic certification mark, growers created a new standard that aligns with the origin of organic thought: the regenerative approach. Organic farming thus offers extra quality and defends itself against the infringements of industrial capital in the organic certification mark. Within a series of defense lines, organic means provide an alternative to artificial fertilizers and chemical pesticides. Although less environmentally disruptive means and methods are already being applied, radical changes in the plant health field have not yet occurred. Contrary to the 'chemophobia' that sometimes prevails, this book adopts a pragmatic option: 'biology where possible and chemistry where necessary'. Some means and methods are centuries old, while others are based on the latest scientific research. Often it is a matter of common sense: 'Keep your plants healthy and they will be better able to defend themselves against infestations'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor Theo Grent discusses useful changes in a system approach and the regulations for green crop protection agents. In doing so, he not only looks at the Netherlands but also at the approach in the United States. His story forms the cornerstone of a long career as an importer of organic means. He proposes a shift in our system through self-regulation. Changes should develop organically (from the bottom up), without providers and users of organic means and methods being instigated by authorities (from the top down). A crucial shift in the way we think about solving problems will occur person by person, one at a time. Eventually, politics will begin to change. The industry, deprived of an income based on recurring problems and our ignorance, will follow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy debunking plant health myths and misinformation, this book offers a clear and concise message of hope.

The Ark of Taste offers a platform for these vulnerable fruit and vegetable varieties, grains, animal breeds, drinks, cheeses and cured meats.
