I'm convinced that the majority of our ills start from a lack of understanding of natural processes. It is important for our culture that people have the opportunity to work outside. Some people envisage organic farming in terms of hand weeding, horses and carts. For some people, organic farming is about turning the clock back and is anti-technology. This is untrue.
Technology has a role in our future.
For example, on this farm satellite mapping is used to give information on yield patterns within the fields. We use this technology to identify areas where there is something wrong with the soil. This enables soil problems to be corrected by putting more muck on certain parts of the field, sub-soiling, or aerating the ground. So the technology is being used to strengthen the organic system. At the same time we make sure that the technology is not going to do any damage in the long term.
