Permaculture

---

Permaculture (permanent agriculture or permanent culture) is the conscious design & maintenance of agriculturally productive systems. Sustainable human settlement design is its prime focus, where the concept strings the disciplines into a web of appropriate & productive development. Originally developed as a methodology in the early 1970’s it is now practiced and applied in nearly every country, and works to sustainably promote low energy and solid state food and resource security.
