from List of organic gardening and farming topics
This list provides an overview of topics related to organic farming and gardening. The focus is broadly inclusive. Many topics are not exclusively within the domain of organic growing, but apply to all types of agriculture and gardening. Others, such as the list of animals, insects, and microorganisms under "Soil life", are not gardening topics at all, but do directly concern the basic principles of organic culture. There are some exceptions to the inclusiveness. In "Tools" and "Techniques", where farming is concerned, the emphasis is on smaller-scale organic production tools and methods, somewhat to the exclusion of the methods of large-scale organic operations (which are nonetheless increasingly common).
Tools
[edit]Cultivation
Pruning and tree care;
The ornamental organic garden
[edit]- Integrated pest management
- Biological pest control
- Physiological plant disorders (ie,plant disorders caused by environmental factors, such as weather conditions, nutrient deficiencies, etc)
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Plant pathology (ie, plant diseases caused by fungi, viruses, bacteria, etc)
(see also 'weed control techniques' above)
