[QUOTE="Richard III, post: 845812, member: 933"] It's probably a fairly safe bet that no one is doing all she says, but she is also claiming previous mistreatment of the soil can be cured quite quickly with her amendments, so the two don't quite sit together right. It could conceivably be that a No Till farmer could get the system to work better than an organic one, most are firmly wedded to cultivations. I like to think that what [USER=319]@Simon C[/USER] achieved with his compost was an Elaine Ingram effect, if it was, it was achieved while chemicals were still being used in the system. Unfortunately, Simon has of yet not managed to repeat such a dramatic result. Even if the system works, I'm sure there would be some plant that would act as a weed and cause problems. I would have thought ryegrass is of a similar succession status to wheat, so would love the conditions provided. For the idea to fly, I think it would have to be able to withstand at least limited chemical intervention. [/QUOTE]
