The Farm That Won't Wear Out
Cyril George Hopkins
51 pages~1 hr 1 min read36 chapters$4.99
Land does not have to wear out, Cyril Hopkins argues, if you replace what the crops remove. This brisk book explains permanent fertility: the foods plants live on, how to measure what you lose, and how to renew a soil for good. Clear soil science for the farmer who wants his ground good for his grandchildren. Farm to last.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
