2 very precious help-lines that i have to progress, you presented and thank you, S Bengi and Travis. Soil care and developing social circle and this is exactly what I want and connect in one.

ad Travis) is your familly farm doing also some educational or community programmes? are people interested? your farm more than 100ha is permaculture only? wow
i have been thinking to join existing agro-perma-net as a franchise.
No. I have never been as a helper in agriculture somewhere out of CZ. as I said I am living present time and before taking charge of the farm I was not thinking about it.

At the conference in UA two month ago I met people there and we are in contact (hope it will bring some fruits), very kind, net and willing to work hard. (not what you will see in my country anymore) I am worried now that their neighbors love their fertile land too much and will change the historical borders, nothing new. yes i mean their neighbor  russia. (sorry it is politic but asa citizen of post kommunist country I am still vry sensible to eastern manners)

ad S Bengi) as i said I read your advise full of care, it all makes sense and will go your steps.
organic material is my savior. I just heard recently about that radish it is new using as cover crop, right?
I never heard about rockdust, it makes ph more alcalic?
thanks for all, very appreciated

thank you Travis, as I said some people have gift to be able concentrate and focus and finish. (seems like you are) I have ability to start a lot of things but never finish.
project for winter: manage a place on farm to live/meet/accomodate myself and others.
so I could invite advisors and here we go.

obviously i haven't understood yet completely how holistic is permaculture. I thought: something similar to the way how our ancestors have lived hand in hand with nature but it is not correct. It is much progressive way. Not so simple to connect all those natural aspects to the profit of the human being.
There is realy educated  people on how to do a circle from sun through soil to human? I would like to meet those.

ad S Bengi) from impressionism to realism, how to do that step?, you are right I have to think more to future, I live just present time.
no matters years ahead I want something international. have fun, meeting, support, educational point,  simple permacultural business, involve elderly

farm now) reconstruction not finished. I am not living there. (I should...all would be easier)
no animals at my farm or even around, it was a strange EU policy toward CZ (maybe only us) based on decreasing financial subventions support to breeding animals and here we stoped breeding and demolish old cawshed and similar (missing words for pigs, chickens etc.) Slowly starting again a few years ago but not around me. EIA and all other bureaucracy...
i grow rapeseed, wheat, Dinkel (auf deutsch), soya, barley, poppyseed. 2 hectars pasture I sow it  even on a very good soil becasue the erosion started to be a nightmare

well. meeting a good company will be a good start for the deal with nature, I am working on it... (because just myself i am not enough consistent and focused, I admire people who have self discipline, I don't)

this sunday I go meet some perma souls.
My problem: not thousand people around, simpliest way of farming, no animals
i dont think I will be able to get rid of pesticide
that decision would mean to buy new machines, everything start here with tilling in automne, right now.
my experience: a lot of academic talking but when I say I need help, sorry, no time. (well not true, wanna help somehow but i am inconsistent, indecisive, suspicious etc.)
will see

thanks for having me:)
Bengi, it is all in hectars. i cultivate 100ha but companies around me 1000+ha. so i am rather small in my region but throughout republic it is avarege (120ha). Agriculture in CZ is deformed and not pleasant. i am conventional asi I said, big machines, industrial fertilizers, all kind of pesticide. i cannot jump into perma 100%, but slowly, step by step, start with more organic material maybe. do you know any perma farm on similar area?

thank you both, Dale, Nathanael,
I read your reaction with all my attention.
Discovered that way of land cultivating a month ago on a conference in Kyiv, "permaculture for academia" and the content drew my interest. I am conventional farmer and don't have any education in agriculture unfortunatly. however I am deeply rooted because of my ancestors.
Through that conference i get in contact with a teacher of permaculture techniques at a university in Brno and will join if only there is enough students and will open class.
I have around me farmers with minimum 1000ha and agriculture in CZ is still misshapen because of collectivization. Here, I never saw fields cultivated in permaculture way. we do have some permaculture centres mostly educational. practical on smaller area.
my most present concern is dryness. how to keep soil moist longer - mostly in spring.

why I am saying this here? sorry, I refine my thoughts, to find out what I want exactly...

I would be happy to start a project here in Czech republic at my small farm and fields but am only me. (Why I am on the international forum? because it gives me more free spirit somehow) and the question is: how people with a project in head find company to realise it (if no family around)?
