| has gloss | eng: Seed balls (土団子,土だんご, Tsuchi Dango Earth Dumpling) consist of mixing one measure of seeds for next season's crop with 3 measures of compost and 5 measures of red clay, and sometimes manure then formed into small balls. Much less seed is used than in conventional growing, resulting in fewer plants which are smaller but stronger with a higher yield. The technique is useful for seeding thin and compacted soils, and avoiding seed eaters. |

| has gloss | jpn: 粘土団子 (ねんどだんご) は、福岡正信の生んだ自然農法で使われる手法で、自然農法のエッセンスの集積とも言われる。次の季節の作物のための百種類以上の種を粘土、たい肥、肥料と混ぜて団子を作る。これを、自然環境に撒いて放置すると自然の状態を種が察して、より適応しやすい時期に発芽する 。また、鳥や虫が嫌う薬草などを混ぜることで、損失を防ぐと言うアイディアも盛り込んである。従来の栽培法よりも、ずっと少ない土を使うので、結果として作物の数は少なくなるが、大きく強い作物になる。 |
