[QUOTE="Guleesh, post: 7575113, member: 147187"] The problem is that those small bits of very productive land only produce those amazing yields with inputs, -compost, manure etc. You need a much larger bit of land to gather the materials to keep the small bit fertile and productive. We have a little veg plot here and so I watch a lot of gardening videos and market gardening channels on youtube, Those places look very impressive, but buying in compost is the norm, and those making their own compost are bringing in materials from farms, stables and sometimes food waste to do so. IMO the main reason that constant inputs are required is the break in the cycle, the vegetables are fed to humans, and human 'manure' all goes down the pan, and not back onto the soil that grew the veg. But who'd want to eat it then? [/QUOTE]
