This quote Rudolf Steiner deals with the pests g g sbekäm p fun, literature: " Humanities foundations for the prosperity of agriculture ", 7 Lecture, GA 327, S.189f. The relationship of field farming, fruit farming and livestock raising
"Just as the coniferous forest an intimate relationship the birds has who shrubs an intimate relationship with the mammals, so in turn has everything Mushy an intimate relationship with the lower animals, bacteria and similar creatures, namely the harmful parasites. And the harmful parasites stick together with the mushroom-like, they develop so where the mushroom-like appearance in distraction. Those plants and cause diseases, injuries also occur in the coarser plants. Let's get it but then to have not only forests, but meadows in an appropriate neighborhood of agriculture, these wetlands are particularly effective for this agriculture that exists in them is a good ground for fungi. And you should see to it that the wetlands are filled in their soil with fungi. And since one will experience the strange thing is that, where a floodplain, a mushroom rich floodplain , albeit perhaps not of strong size, near an agricultural sector that since then these fungi now its relationship with the bacteria and the other parasitic creatures prevent this beast from the other . For the mushrooms hold more together with the animals, as do the other plants. In addition to such things as I have mentioned it to combat such pests
(see other lectures), there is also the possibility, in the great possibility to hold by application of the floodplain harmful small animals, damaging the small beasts of agriculture .
In proper distribution of forest, fruit trees, shrubs, meadows is a certain natural fungal culture as much the essence of a competitive agriculture that can meet them more for agriculture, when even the available areas of agricultural land decrease slightly would. In any case, you practice in any economic sector, if the face of the earth as much advantage that everything vanishes that of which I spoke have, and we speculated on the fact that this can grow more. What can we grow as more is just bad in a greater degree, than that is what can be achieved by increasing the area at the expense of other things. You can actually stand in an establishment that is as much a natural operation as a farm, not in it, without in this way have insights into the context of the natural operation, the interaction of the natural operations.
