Biodynamics NZ – Taking a Holistic View

Biodynamics is a unique systems approach; where the farm, vineyard, orchard or garden is viewed as a whole. Management is based on the grower’s own careful observations, plus the results of tests and analyses. In this way, modern technology and traditional knowledge marry to form a highly-effective method which is bespoke to each location.

What are the advantages of Biodynamics?

Biodynamics utilises and integrates otherwise considered waste-streams, recognising them as the high value commodities that they are.  This improves the health of the environment and local ecosystem.

Before industrialised agriculture, everything was effectively organic. Biodynamics  predates all forms of certified organics – it harkens back to age old, time tested ways of working with the land, engaging both observation and scientific based methodologies of agriculture, in a way that merges well with many other modalities such as: Permaculture, Hua Parakore, Syntropic and Regenerative agriculture.
