“For me, it is just not satisfactory to simply teach a course, inspire many, and then just leave it with them - sure, this is helpful, but what if they begin their journey and start making mistakes that I have already made, that they just don’t need to (for example, successional gaps don’t just cost money, they cost time - years). What if they spend so long learning something that I already have done, and take much longer to develop than needed? Sometimes it is just the simplest bits of advice that can make a very transformative difference.”

Syntropic farming comes from a very different place than conventional farming, be it organic or conventional. Syntropic Farming uses the power of ecology to drive growth, just like the great forests of the globe - there were no inputs needed for life to reach higher levels, much higher levels than on any farm. Of course time is a factor in this, but the point is that the forests (and savannas) are self organising systems which go through a process of species succession.
