Shumei Natural Agriculture is more than a system of food production, it is a way of life. Many modern agricultural practices are based on a belief in the need to control and manipulate the growing process. Instead, Shumei Natural Agriculture does not use any chemicals whatsoever in its farming methodology—no herbicides, no pesticides, and no fertilisers—not even animal manure. We simply trust the power of nature that can grow healthy and tasty crops that are full of vital energy.
