A reference book that shows that permaculture is applicable to “conventional” farms, with a view to their ecological regeneration.

The book lays the foundations for the design and management of perennial agricultural systems (which rely primarily on perennial plants), with a view to reconsidering the main current societal challenges (food, energy, environment, climate) in light of their close relationship with crop and livestock farming activities.

The result is a more autonomous, diversified, sustainable agriculture, producing not only varied food resources (cereals, fruits, animal fodder, mushrooms, honey…), but also wood energy, medicinal plants, textile fiber, etc… from the plot to the territory.
