Masanobu Fukuoka

Masanobu Fukuoka was a Japanese farmer and philosopher known for developing a natural farming method called "do-nothing farming." His approach emphasizes working with nature rather than controlling it, minimizing tillage, chemical use, and synthetic inputs. Fukuoka believed that healthy, sustainable agriculture could be achieved through observing natural processes, encouraging soil health, and promoting biodiversity. His methods aim for simplicity and harmony with the environment, offering a way to grow food that is eco-friendly, cost-effective, and resilient, inspiring many to consider more sustainable agricultural practices worldwide.
