What can you expect to find in this book? The author describes his personal memories of organic and sustainable agriculture in Germany and many other countries on all continents. In doing so, he reports in narrative style on a large number of his own projects from the long period from the 1970s to the present day and derives considerations from them as to which of these experiences could be incorporated into future farm practice, but also into political decisions. Readers dealing with similar issues will receive a wealth of ideas for their own projects. These impulses initially arose from his own practical experience with successful large-scale farming in bird and water protection areas. Significant areas of the farm could later be transferred to a national park; not for rehabilitation, but because of the existing rich biodiversity and the good quality of soil, water and landscape. The author's agroecological consultancy successfully carried out several hundred consultancy projects for companies, authorities and governments. He has also been active in many countries on all continents as head of an internationally active certification body. All of this makes the book exciting, instructive and easy to read.
