I think you did a good job Richard at pointing out the great things that Marko and his partners are doing, but at the same time giving them constructive criticism. I'm sure they respect your opinions and knowledge of what other farmers are doing that makes profitable sense. I do believe though that they need to expand their horizons and introduce other revenue streams such as mushrooms, poultry, eggs or whatever makes sense for their area that would bring in higher ROI besides just focusing mainly on garden vegetables. I was shocked when I heard Pit say they're growing over 30 varieties of tomato's!!!. Good Grief! Great video as always.

Do you happen to know any examples of this system/methodology being done in the Mediterranean?

Would it not be worthwhile to consider making their own compost? They could give some land over to growing compost material and maybe even collect green waste. I used to buy compost from a farmer who had a contract with the council to handle their green waste - he reckoned it was a win-win-win as he was paid to take the waste, paid for the finished product and had improved his own land whilst ceasing fertiliser inputs. We basically paid him delivery plus a small amount and he delivered using a friend's skip wagon and a 12 cubic yard skip. The wagon tipped it out.

When growing 31 different tomato species, how do you prevent cross pollination?
@brianthian8449
4 жыл бұрын
My guess is because tomatoes are primarily not wind-pollinated or even animal-pollinated, it probably doesn’t matter so much. The reason why bees help us the buzzing vibrates the plants at a suitable frequency for the pollination to occur. The second thing would be that they’re going for the best tasting tomatoes, so I think as long they have good quality, I think the “purity” of the strain may not matter as much haha. But this is all conjecture

Instead of buying machinery for the compost and then working really hard to compost everything, why don't they just integrate some meat animals with a land rotation system, during which quarters are fertilized and planted upon consecutively? What you do is the cows, pigs and chickens doing the composting for you, and you even make a profit from the animals.

Loving the videos Richard, thank you. I'm interested how you calculate €8000 profit from 60 laying hens. I'm based in the UK and I calculate roughly £4,000 gross profit using organic feed @ £0.45 per kg and selling eggs for £0.30 each (retail). I estimate that 60 hens would eat 2.5 tons and lay roughly 290 eggs each per year.

I would be wanting 50 eggs/day on av. Depends on breed, but I'd get enough hens to get that. They can sell boxes of 6 for Eur 4. Thats over 12k. Feed at your price would be just over 1k. Boxes, other bits and bobs, not a lot. You guys need a nation wide egg price overhaul, it's too cheap a source of protein. I know its a very sensitive issue, and not so easy, but UK egg prices suck.

One of the things that really give me pause when parsing the feasibility of those models in germany. The competition seems to be a lot harsher by means of a lot lower prices for organic produce, with the cost of living not that much lower in proportion. I´d love to see actual numbers from someone trying it here, seeing their margins (or lack thereof, as i fear).

Keep in mind that if you are doing things the right way like Richard is you are not just another organic grower, it's also your story that sells and I'm sure enough people would gladly pay a little bit more to buy produce from people they can actually approach directly rather than some faceless organic brand found in the supermarket (that most likely is growing on depleted soil).

Richard talks about someone who is starting in Germany. I think a lot of people, especially Germans (I am from Scotland living in Germany) are very nervous about regulations and the issue of supermarket bio. The difference to what you are getting in the supermarket and what Richard and other similar farmers are producing products of a much higher quality. I would love some type of scientific studies to really check this claim but I really believe that. I will do some digging (pun intended) to see if this is the case
