## Overview

The One-Straw Revolution by Masanobu Fukuoka is a seminal 1978 classic that introduces a radical, sustainable farming philosophy centered on working with nature. Combining memoir and manifesto, it has inspired the global permaculture movement and remains a top-rated guide for organic and sustainable agriculture.

## Description

Masanobu Fukuoka's book about growing food has been changing the lives of readers since it was first published in 1978. It is a call to arms, a manifesto, and a radical rethinking of the global systems we rely on to feed us all. It is also the memoir of a man whose spiritual beliefs underpin and inform every aspect of his innovative farming system. Equal parts farmer and philosopher, Fukuoka is recognized as one of the founding thinkers of the permaculture movement. Fukuoka perfected his so-called do-nothing technique, a way of farming that seeks to work with nature rather than make it over through increasingly elaborate-and often harmful -methods. His farm became a gathering place for people from all over the world who wished to adapt his ways to their own local cultures.

Review: Truly inspirational. - I have been meaning to read this book for sometime but had preconceived ideas that it would be hard work to read. Not in the slightest and it has been a real page turner. Every page is full of wisdom and insight that is as relevant today as when it was written. Highly recommended.
Review: Brilliant book. - Brilliant because of the impact it made in the permaculture/natural farming world, and also because he speaks a beautiful philosophy on how our farming and lifestyles need to be integrated into nature, not just for our benefit but as a necessity for healing the earth. he shows that not only does following the flow of nature work for farming, but also how it provides healthier food for us.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant book.

Brilliant because of the impact it made in the permaculture/natural farming world, and also because he speaks a beautiful philosophy on how our farming and lifestyles need to be integrated into nature, not just for our benefit but as a necessity for healing the earth. he shows that not only does following the flow of nature work for farming, but also how it provides healthier food for us.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The original and genuine first English language publication written and ...
*by C***R on 29 January 2016*

The original and genuine first English language publication written and published in India - the foreword talks about Masaobu Fukuoka's transformation of a Quaker settlement right across the road from where I worked. I much prefer this version to the later American one by Larry Corn. Masanobu is the father of Natural Farming and his story of how that came about and how he tried to stop profiteers charging higher prices for higher-quality food which cost less to grow than unhealthy mass-produced monoculture food is something to be aware of when we are overcharged for organic produce, and the natural methods of preventing pest and disease should be a lesson to all food-crop growers. This book should be bought by all who want healthy food and those who are interested in Natural Farming and Permaculture. Together with Patrick Whitefields 'Permaculture'in a Nutshell' and Aranya's 'Permaculture Design, 'One Straw revolution' these three little books comprehensively cover what is needed to get our food growing back to being healthy again and our bodies free of pesticides and biocides. Get all three!.
