Dedicated to his first wife and co-worker, herself a plant phsyiologist, it focuses on the nature and management of soil fertility, and notably explores composting. At a time when modern, chemical-based industrialized agriculture was just beginning to radically alter food production, it advocated natural processes rather than man-made inputs as the superior approach to farming.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51381351612639,"sku":"9781774641439","price":14.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/MuAJmwTC1T9781774641439.webp?v=1789282975","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/an-agricultural-testament-paperback","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
