Snip Podolinsky is often held up as the living proof that biodynamics can be dramatically successful. Unfortunately, more and more it appears that one must accept his claims of success through faith, rather than through objectively verified evidence. ***** I think that AP is more interested in convincing land owners to go out and do it, than prove figures or anything else to the press or others. He put his hand up for BD, at a time, when in most countries, it was still quiet small scale and set out to make it happen in real acreage's. The acreage's he has organised are huge. I do not think any one person, or even a group would know how much BD there is in Oz, as it is fragmented as else where. One hears of organic beef properties measured in many tens of square miles wanting to use aircraft.... I understand that there is thought to be more acreage in Oz than in the rest of the world, so how much is there else where?
