It seems like the key to Fukuoka’s success with double cropping is the return of as much organic matter to the soil as possible in the form of straw after the rice/barley was threshed.  In addition, biodiversity including nitrogen fixators helped cycle and reinfuse nutrients in the system. It seemed to run best when he could run ducks over the area at strategic times.
