In 1924 Dr Rudolf Steiner gave 8 lectures which have since become known as the 'Agriculture Course'. To many this course was the seed which grew into modern organic agriculture, and certainly into biodynamic agriculture. However, even for those familiar with Dr Steiner's wider work - Anthroposophy - these lectures are very challenging to comprehend and build upon. This commentary by Enzo Nastati shows both a thorough penetration of the subject and offers insight to the developments that Enzo Nastati and his team have built upon Dr Steiner's foundation. In 30 meetings from 2001 to 2005 this was explained to the farmers and gardeners who wished to develop Dr Steiner's work. The revised transcripts have now been translated in English, and promise to assist sincere students of biodynamic agriculture to become more conscious of what Dr Steiner offered 80 years previously.

Soil Health and Intensification of Agroecosystems
<p><i>Soil Health and Intensification of Agroecosystems</i> examines the climate, environmental, and human effects on agroecosystems and how the existing paradigms must be revised in order to establish sustainable production. The increased demand for food and fuel exerts tremendous stress on all aspects of natural resources and the environment to satisfy an ever increasing world population, which includes the use of agriculture products for energy and other uses in addition to human and animal food. </p> <p>The book presents options for ecological systems that mimic the natural diversity of the ecosystem and can have significant effect as the world faces a rapidly changing and volatile climate. The book explores the introduction of sustainable agroecosystems that promote biodiversity, sustain soil health, and enhance food production as ways to help mitigate some of these adverse effects.</p> <p>New agroecosystems will help define a resilient system that can potentially absorb some of the extreme shifts in climate. Changing the existing cropping system paradigm to utilize natural system attributes by promoting biodiversity within production agricultural systems, such as the integration of polycultures, will also enhance ecological resiliency and will likely increase carbon sequestration.</p>
