Most of the people on this list are from the States and Down Under. I'm pretty sure there's nobody from Manchester Permaculture Society on-line yet. You can try phoning Lloyd Berriman on 0161 231 1780. He's a qualified (or is it certified) permaculture designer.

(A URL is a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or address that you can use on the WWW (World Wide Web) to find pages when you "surf the net". It often begins with: http://). Our address is: http://ppathw3.cals.cornell.edu/mba_project/no_image.html Description of the MBA Group The Mulch-Based Agriculture (MBA) group was officially formed in 1994 under the sponsorship of Cornell International Institute for Food, Agriculture, and Development (CIIFAD). The goals of the MBA Group are to: 1) facilitate interdisciplinary research on indigenous and traditional tropical mulch-based systems, 2) encourage exchange of related information between researchers in various institutions/agencies and between researchers and the NGO/field level, and 3) consolidate, synthesize and disseminate practical, farmer-tested information on mulch technologies. The MBA Group's main interests revolve around mulch-based systems that can improve agricultural sustainability for resource-poor farmers in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Mulch-based systems include: green manures, cover crops, and various agroforestry systems that have a mulch or a litter layer of vegetative biomass which is cut and left on (or partially incorporated into) the soil. In addition to the centuries of traditional farmer experience with these systems, there are also recent innovations made by both farmers and investigators working with systems such as the velvet bean/maize rotations in Northern Honduras, contour hedgerows in Asia and the "frijol tapado" (covered beans) system in Costa Rica. Systematically studying traditional and indigenous emerging MBA systems such as these can provide important lessons for improving the sustainability and productivity of agriculture in developing countries particularly on erosion-prone hillsides. Our motto is: "Sustainable Agriculture With A Sense of Humus" Comments on our WWW page are welcome. H.

Sigh. So, in view of this, could people perhaps mail me with: ANY permaculture-related info they would like to see linked into my page, ANY sustainable agriculture related info they'd like to see linked in, any other sites, pointers, etc. Also, is there anything like a FAQ for sustainable agriculture? Would it be a good idea if I wrote one? I was thinking of something more akin to an online resource guide than a definitive "what it's all about" document. I'll do one of those as well, if people are interested, but my strength lies in surfing the net and HTML, *not* in sustainable agriculture, so I'll need a hand if anyone wants to see a "guide to sustainable agriculture" as opposed to "a guide to sustainable agriculture resources on the internet". What I have done so far may be found at: permaculture on the internet and sustainable agriculture I'm on holidays, you see, and I feel like doing something useful.
