He put his hand up for BD, at a time, when in most countries, it was still quiet small scale and set out to make it happen in real acreage's. The acreage's he has organised are huge. I do not think any one person, or even a group would know how much BD there is in Oz, as it is fragmented as else where. One hears of organic beef properties measured in many tens of square miles wanting to use aircraft I understand that there is thought to be more acreage in Oz than in the rest of the world, so how much is there else where?

Then it's fallen to me to tell you that A.P. refers to Alex Podolinsky, best known in the US for the 3 volumes of BIODYNAMIC AGRICULTURE that he has written. Hopefully, a member of his Association will come foreward and tell us all more (and maybe confirm this 2,000,000 acre figure). Podolinsky is often held up as the living proof that biodynamics can be dramatically successful.
