BOKASHI…in the press again

Northumberland farmers Guy Douglas and Peter Brewis are pioneering efficient, cost-effective farming methods by using regenerative agriculture and Bokashi composting to enhance soil health and reduce fertilizer dependency. Their innovative approach combines shared machinery and coordinated crop plans, with Guy transitioning from granular to foliar fertilizers and Bokashi for manure treatment. By fermenting manure with a specialized microbial starter, they preserve nutrient value, creating a natural, closed-loop fertilization system. Their method enhances soil organic matter and microbial activity, supporting healthier crops and livestock without reliance on external feed. Focused on responsible, sustainable farming within the Northumberland Coast National Landscape, they aim to reduce inputs, restore natural processes, and promote ecological balance.
