It is a good video, You can see why some nations are heavily employing plasticulture. It provides for greater year round food security. It also brings with it a high level of control. You can greatly control and modify many/most aspects of growing a crop. It is really great for being able to utiliize biological predatory insects and mites. It keeps the beneficical predators right where you want them. It is a thought provoking video. It opened my eyes up to a few things.
