Forlagsbeskrivelse af Silvohorticulturea Grower'S Guide To Integrating Trees Into af Andy Dibben
‘At last, a comprehensive manual for horticulturists aspiring to integrate trees into their farms – agroforestry at its finest.’ Iain Tolhurst, MBE‘Dibben and Raskin offer an insightful, inspiring but also exceptionally practical guide to integrating trees into annual cropping systems.’ Jesse Frost, author of The Living Soil HandbookAn invaluable handbook for farmers, growers and gardeners, Silvohorticulture is the first book to offer a detailed, practical guide on how to integrate trees with vegetable growing. Expert growers Ben Raskin and Andy Dibben bring together their decades-long experiences in commercial crop production alongside designing and managing agroforestry systems in their groundbreaking new book Silvohorticulture – the definitive book on the interaction between trees and crops. They explore the incredible benefits of trees for edible crops and the potential for additional crops from trees, plus crucial new information on how to fit trees into complex crop rotations and manipulate access to light. Ben and Andy also reveal for the first time the latest research on how tree roots behave and, importantly, how that impacts your crops. Agroforestry can bring immense benefits to farmers and growers – not just optimising yield, but also improving soil, managing pests and water, increasing biodiversity and reducing costs. System design must be customised to each grower’s requirements, and Silvohorticulture offers step-by-step detail that will allow you to manage your trees and crops successfully. ‘Every now and then a book comes along that adds a whole new dimension to a subject that you thought you understood.’ John Cherry, cofounder of the Groundswell Regenerative Agriculture Festival
