Farmers Tell about Organic and Low-Input Practices in the Northeast provides a vivid snapshot of organic and sustainable farming in the Northeast in the 1990's. Based on interviews with more than sixty farmers, the book summarizes practical methods for ecological soil, pest, disease, crop, greenhouse, and livestock management. Illustrated with photographs and line drawings, it offers a farmer's perspective on how to design rotations, select crops, and survive economically in an increasingly chemical-dependent and industrialized agricultural system. Included are an index, a bibliography, and eight appendixes. The glossary, resource directory, and lists of organizations and Cooperative Extension contacts for the Northeast were updated in 1998 for the second printing.
