Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Subtitled The Seaweed Story, this book explains how we can produce our food by using seaweed and fish-based inputs rather than wasteful and unsustainable chemical fertilizers. Fryer and Simmons tell how growers can harness the sea's energy to extend growing seasons, increase yields, protect crops from insects and disease, and more. This class work of eco-ag is available again in this new edition.

About the Author
Author of such classic works as The American Farmer and Earth Foods, the late Lee Fryer was undoubtedly one of the greatest minds and voices in the service of sustainable agriculture. In addition to his powerful writing, Fryer worked to improve American agriculture through 30 years' experience in the USDA and the farm and garden supply industry, where he helped hundreds of farmers and gardeners to grow safe, nutritious food crops.
A longtime associate in Fryer's research, writing and work with fertilizer technologies, Dick Simmons was a marine biologist, chemist and fertilizer agronomist. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
