In response to your question. The Fukuoka method is better over time and for larger areas. for smaller areas and for perennial areas huggle culture is great. As is natural sheet mulching, try growing up some rhubarb so you have big leaves to use instead of cardboard or newspaper as your understory sheet mulching material. Depending on where you are at you might really want to consider some Andean crops. Some Yacon will really help chew clay and add fertility. Oca seems to grow well with clover, to keep the weeds down, and add more, again, fertility.
