Hundreds of kinds of mixed seeds, soil humus, and dry powdered red brown clay, form the solid components of seed balls.

sudama - Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I was building a shade-structure today, for an organic farmer. I remembered hearing of Fukuoka's work but couldn't recall the specifics or even his name. I wanted to tell the farmer of this better method but couldn't recall anything. I actually had thought of this - Fukuoka's better method - a number of times in the past two or three days and had racked my memory - to no avail. I was resigned to a slow, arduous trek towards the origin. Then came your post.

Fukuoka's book "The One-Straw Revolution" is a classic. Bill Mollison ,Fukuoka and Wes Jackson all deserve credit for keeping alive and reviving sustainable methods of farming. Sudama thanks for the link.

Wow! So simple and elegant. What a great idea. Plus they look chocolate and salty.

(Nature does the same thing with dung, but it's still a good idea) Also, this is somewhat similar to a method used to get orchids and their required fungus delivered to the same site for germination.

They are also good for throwing at the heads of your enemies. "Take that, eco-destroyers!!"

sudama - again, thanks. I've found a new muse/sage in Fukuoka. He somehow melts, in my pantheon, into Sahtouris
