Elementary Farming

Conferences and Interviews

A great effort has been made to collect the historical and current video footage of Gian Carlo Cappello's contributions to the "Non-method" of farming that he conceived and disseminated after a lifetime of field experiments.

All the videos of Gian Carlo Cappello's conferences and talks are gathered on the
YouTube channel: Gian Carlo Cappello - La Coltivazione Elementare, which is free and regularly updated.
Below you will find some conferences and interviews... for the complete list, you can visit and subscribe to the channel!

"For those who have a bit of cultivated or to-be-cultivated land, treat yourself to a couple of hours with Gian Carlo Cappello. In a time like this, when human behavior has proven to be flawed, it's time to change course, starting from Mother Nature and her ancient teachings. Respect to be respected is the only ironclad rule that Mother Nature demands." (Ermete Marcello)
