We talk with Jean-Michel Florin about the importance of food quality.
We talk about how consumers experience the quality of biodynamic food and why food quality is more than just the nutrients. How perceiving food quality can be trained and how to understand the relationship between food intake and personal energy levels.

Julia Wright has a background in international research and development, seeking to integrate ecological (organic and permaculture) thinking into conventional agricultural systems and organisations, including in humanitarian settings. She is engaged in the work of the Biodynamic Association UK and was part of the conference committee of the 2nd International Biodynamic Research Conference 2021 on the theme ”Growing beyond Resilience”.

In this episode, we will talk about her connection to biodynamics and her published book "Subtle agroecology: farming with the hidden half of nature". We exchange about the potential and difficulties of biodynamic research and what she is looking forward to researching in the future.

We talk with Ueli Hurter about the historical development of biodynamic agriculture. We will explore in this episode how biodynamic agriculture developed and why it is still relevant today. We discuss how it spread to all the climate and cultural zones of the world. We exchange about the progression of themes in the biodynamic movement and many more.

In the first episode, we talk with Jean-Michel Florin about the importance of the own perception. We will explore in this episode why climate change increases the need to become more aware of the perception of your farm, your surrounding, and your landscape. In particular when it is a biodynamic farm. We are talking about the theories of Rudolf Steiner behind your own perception and why it may even help you to increase your economic efficiency at your farm. And why it may feel difficult to share your own perception and to talk about it openly in the public. However, your perceptions can be validated by exchanging with others more easily.
