Hello dear members. This week we would like to share with you an excerpt from an interview in which Ernst describes his hypothesis about the motives behind the tendency of our species to push forests away. After the end of the last glacial period, 12,000 years ago, forest ecosystems occupied what was once the steppe. Faced with this change, what did men do? How can we reconcile ourselves with the natural tendency of life on the planet today expressed by forest environments? How does our agriculture fit into this living wheel?

Excelente entrevista do nosso querido Ernst, parabéns. Queremos cada vez mais, filma tudo Felipe!!
Pois é… parece tão lógico, que fica difícil acreditar que a grande maioria dos agricultores pensem diferente!
Realmente não há maneira mais ineficiente de se buscar resultados diferentes, do que realizando os mesmos processos!
O que o Ernst, a Primavezi e vários outros ativistas da agricultura de processos nos mostram é que se pode obter até mais produtividade por área plantada, com menor custo e com melhor qualidade (leia-se Nirvana…), caso se respeite a natureza e se utilize as suas dádivas em nosso favor.
Parabéns pelo trabalho! Mantenha a proa que o horizonte está límpido!!
