L'agriculture bio-dynamique : comment l'appliquer dans la vigne (French Edition) by François Bouchet

Biodynamic Agriculture, How to Apply it in the Vineyard is a major work by François Bouchet, a pioneer of biodynamics in viticulture. With fifty years of practice and teaching, the author provides us with a comprehensive guide to mastering the principles and techniques of biodynamic agriculture, specifically applied to the vine.

In this book, François Bouchet shares his field experience, where he perfected his biodynamic methods. He precisely addresses the various aspects of this agriculture that respects nature, ranging from biodynamic preparations to the influence of lunar cycles on the vine.

The author begins with an analysis of the successive drifts that have led modern viticulture to often destructive practices. He then offers a clear and irrevocable diagnosis of the current situation, before detailing the necessary measures to put the vine back on a more sustainable and harmonious path.

François Bouchet is not only a technical expert but also a poet at heart. His love for the earth and the natural world shines through every page of this book. He invites us to reconnect with the forces of nature, whether mineral, plant, animal, or stellar.
