Jardin Biologique
The Sustainable Bio-intensive Vegetable Garden.
In the elephant valley vegetable garden we are following a crop management system which is inspired by lessons learned from Nature. The natural forest shows us the way to an ideal system.It is biodiversity which ensures ecological balance. There are more than 100 plant species grown per acre of natural forest, while agri-mono-culture is the most unstable ecosystem and susceptible to pest outbreak and mass failure.We maintain bio diversity in our garden by cultivating at any given moment more than 25 species and varieties of vegetables and by rotating our crops around the year and around the garden.
Is Organic food better?
A research made at Rutgers University in the U.S.A compare vegetable grown organically and using synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
The research has clearly proved that Organic is better! .
Organically grown vegetables contain 2 times more phosphorus, 3 to 6 times more Calcium, 3 to 10 times more Magnesium, 2 to 3 times more Potassium, 5 to 10 times more Boron, up to 100 times more Manganese, up to 50 times more Iron, up to 100 times more Copper…
