Fukuoka's techniques contradict common farming methods. His farm had the structure of a natural forest. He called it "do nothing farming"... and his natural farming techniques did not require cultivation, chemical fertilizers, weeding, tillage or herbicides nor did they rely on any dependence on chemicals... Is this the way of the past or the way of the future? I think he needed courage in his time to allow himself to take risks, and it will take courage to follow in his footsteps.
