Bio-Dynamic Agricultural Association of Australia (BDAAA)
The commitment of those not only farming Bio-Dynamically, but also the manufacturing, distribution and marketing of DEMETER Bio-Dynamic produce ensures that the range of quality DEMETER Certified foods and fibres will continue to expand.
In 1953 the Bio-Dynamic Agricultural Association of Australia (BDAAA) was founded as a training body to aid farmers in developing the skills and techniques to change from conventional to Bio-Dynamic farming. All members are bonafide owner/operator farmers, who form a purposeful Guild, which also mentors newly converting farmers by providing support and advice.
Bio-Dynamic farmers develop skills to “culture” the soil. (Hence the original meaning of the word AGRI-CULTURE, or soil-culture). Every aspect of primary production should be based on the understanding of the dynamic interplay of soil life as basis for plant and animal health, and the reciprocal influence thereof. Due to the workings of this dynamic principle, plant and soil become effective mediators of quality food – essential for man and animal.
