Ecologically Harmonious
A practical method for efficient, productive systems that can be used in many places.
Organic Plant
Tropical plants that support poultry, soil, and biodiversity.
Satoyama Farm views natural tropical rainforest plants as a source of useful active compounds that can enhance poultry growth and health. The farm is working toward poultry feed based on tropical, sustainably sourced ingredients to replace temperate-sourced ones.
Permaculture
A practical way to grow with the ecosystem.
Satoyama's planting approach is inspired by permaculture: creating productive systems that work with nature, reduce synthetic chemical dependency, and use bio-fertilisers to keep the farm ecology healthy.
Sustainable Living
A framework for creating more sustainable ways of living and farming.
Synthetic Chemical Free
The planting system avoids synthetic chemical inputs.
Bio-Fertilisers
Organic inputs support soil life and plant growth.
How We Plant
Plants are chosen to help each other.
The farm uses plant variety, ground cover, and shade to create a more balanced growing environment.
Plant diversity
A variety of plants creates an environment that supports the growth of others.
Ground cover crops
Plants such as peanuts act as nitrogen fixers and help protect soil.
Bamboo shade
Tall bamboo shades plants from heat and supports a cooler microclimate.
