Smallholding as a concept is not limited to small-scale farming,
and anyone can bring parts of it to their everyday lifestyle,
whether it's a window box to grow produce, a garden to keep
chickens or a field or two for other livestock. Providing a
comprehensive overview of smallholding for the beginner,
Smallholding is a practical guide to growing food and farming
livestock. It helps the reader learn how to incorporate some
self-sufficiency into their lifestyle, to become knowledgeable
enough to keep livestock, and to enjoy working and being productive
with the land they have. It also gives information about making a
profit from the fruits of labour, such as selling surplus home
grown produce at the farm gate or farmers' markets. Contents
include an A-Z growing guide for fruits and vegetables, topics such
as buying or renting land, soil health, composting, fruit trees,
pasture management, stock fencing; and detailed livestock
information about keeping bees, caring for poultry, goats, llamas
and alpacas, pigs, sheep and cattle, and the legal requirements
that come with it. Smallholding is a practical, comprehensive guide
to smallholding for beginners, aimed at people who have access to
land, as well as those growing produce in their back garden.
