My expectation is that with improving the genetics for production that the health factors receive less attention so good health in organic situations is even more meaningful. Since writing yesterday I have herd that Hella Bauer Eden has done such a thesis. I will post a link or address if there is one next week. To get juice out of grass many consultants here have some small plates welded into the jaws of a pair of vicegrips. These put quite a pressure on the herbage and work quite well on green grass. When only sugar provides the sweetness the meal is not satisfying or leaves one hungry. If there is a good measure of protein then there is a fullness to the flavour and one feels satisfied and nourised and does not get hungry again after an hour or two. Peter.

Please don´t forget the genetics of these animal´s they have beingdoing a wonderful wrk by selecting Frisio , and Jersey for pasture for a long time and the way they use to eveluate a animal is quit different : http://www.newzealandgenetics.com ; and http://www.aeu.org.nz Livestock Improvement New Zealand If one looks at the health factor of herds of dairy cows even in N.Z. it is remarkable the difference in vet costs and how quickly that change can take place, one can be in no doubt that consuming organic foods are conciderably more beneficial to the health of the consumer. With dairy cows one is dealing with a shorter life span than for humans. Cows can not hop on their bikes and go down town for their favourite fast food meal!! like humans can so that makes a study much easier to monitor. They haven't got access to the supermarket and all the tempting bargains either. I don't know of anyone who has done such a study at university level, do you? Perhaps someone can persuade a student to look at this question for a Master Of Science degree. My partner Gill is looking at the nutritional aspects of organic v/s conventional with lettuces as the study plant and reports amoung other things that protein is significantly ellevated where the biodynamic remedies have been used. She should be finnished her degree at the end of June. We are having autumn in N.Z. and in our part good heavy autumn rain has arrived right on shedule for golden queen peach harvest. Like many soft and stone fruit that get good rain just before harvest time splitting and rotting procede apace. This year I got busy with one of the sprays we make in the lab. (Glen Atkinson's sprays are now being marketed as B.D.Max by a new sales company of that name). Root max in the afternoon and Ripemax in the morning. The splitting slowed right down then stopped.I picked most of the fruit for bottleing. The first run had a brix of seven, the last two 16 and fifteen. No sugar or honey was used and all the fruit looked green before peeling and many after peeling too. A few leaves of stevia were added to each brew. When chopped up less than a level teaspoon. Without the use of these homoeopathic remedies I would have expected to loose more than half the fruit to brown rot. Only a few missed the bottle altogether and I had to cut bits off a few. Regards, Peter.
