  • Soil comparison of organically farmed soil and conventionally farmed soil at the Rodale Institute near Kutztown, Pennsylvania.  The soil on the left is from a test plot that has been farmed organically for 30 years.  Soil at right is conventionally farmed soil from a same test field.  Organically farmed soil has good structure and holds water and its shape.  Conventionally farmed soil has almost no structure and falls apart in water.

  • Aly Ouedraogo has led efforts to restore farmland in Gourcy, about 40 kilometers south of Ouahigouya in Burkina Faso.  Work included using low rows of stones called bunds, to control water flow and let water permeate into the soil.  The picture show the landscape in March 1986 when work began, and illustrates how barren the land was at the time.

  • Seed from the Kew Millennium Seed Bank collection at Wakehurst, outside London in the UK.  <br />
<br />
Pinus radiata (Pinaceae) - Monterey pine; wikipedia: The Monterey Pine is widely used in private gardens and public landscapes in temperate California, and similar climates around the world. It is a fast-growing tree, adaptable to a broad range of soil types and climates, though does not tolerate temperatures below about -15°C. Its fast growth makes it ideal for landscapes and forestry; in a good situation, P. radiata can reach its full height in 40 years or so.<br />
