Earlier this month 6 members of Central West Biodynamic Group had a social prep spraying day at one of our members who had been drastically effected by the drought.
We had 2 stirring machines (one 60 gallon and a 90 gallon) and 2 sets of flow forms running into a 400 litter tank, along with the brand new fire tanker which bought the water for the spraying out. As usual there was some problem with at least one pump, nothing much that a few willing hands couldn't fix. The first load of spray headed out at about 3'oclock and continued on until after dark. Back up again before daylight to get the 501 out. In all we got preps out over 200 acres that were sown that weekend as the gods must have heard that the preps were going out and gave us an inch of rain. The property is 1500 acres with around 800 acres under cultivation, so it would have taken all of us at least 4 days to put out the preps only on the cultivation area.The whole exercise gave all of us a n insight into the difficulties of broad acre application of BD preps. Itut the preps out in between stirring and spraying
The biggest problem is that the time when the preps go out usually coincides with the time for sowing. In many instances the sowing gets done and the preps wait for a less busy time(if there is one). It is easy to see that there is a future for radionics in broad acre cropping. Our member manages 1500 acres by himself, quite a feat. It is not uncommon in Australian cropping for one man to manage very large areas. Just try sowing down 800 acres in a few days because there is enough rainfall to at least get a germination, even although there is minimal subsoil moisture.
One must give full praise to the broad acre farmers who have not even come out of drought yet still expend large amounts of money to put another crop in, full of hope and not much else there for them. For many farmers it will be very tough, if they can hang on, if there is no crop this year.
Something like 95% of NSW is still drought affected, although fortunately our property has had 22 inches of rain since March.
We had really good mileage from Hugh Lovel's Workshop at Albury, however I have found that Radionic broadcast of sea water and the use of Radionic color therapy on the atmosphere has enabled the rain to move in a further 30 km from the east. More on the results of sea water broadcast in another post.
