This book provides a comprehensive overview of Biodynamic farming, its scientific basis, detailed instructions for practical application, together with a series of detailed case studies of a variety of Biodynamic farms in Australia and Europe. These farms use the Australia Demeter Biodynamic Method which is applied widely in Europe, Asia, and in the USA. It is called the 'Australian' method because it was where Biodynamics developed most extensively under the leadership of Alex Podolinsky (1925-2019), extending to hundreds of thousands of acres by the mid-1980s. Through Alex Podolinsky's annual advisory trips throughout Europe from the 1990s until his death in 2019, hundreds of farmers now use the 'Australian Demeter Biodynamic Method'
