Biodynamic farming

Also known as "biodynamic farming," it is known as the strictest of all organic farming methods.

It is based on the theory proposed by Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), a philosopher who was active in Germany and Austria, and Steiner's idea of "utilizing the power of the universe in crop cultivation" gained widespread support and spread among farmers around the world.

Not only do they not use pesticides or chemical fertilizers, but they are also known for having unique rules, such as sowing and harvesting in accordance with the phases of the moon, stuffing cow horns with dung, burying it in the soil, digging it up, diluting it with rainwater, and spraying it on the fields.
