With this remarkable series of lectures presented in Koberwitz, Silesia, June 7-16, 1924, Rudolf Steiner founded biodynamic agriculture. They contain profound insights into farming, the plant and animal world, the nature of organic chemistry, and the influences of heavenly bodies. This translation from the original German by Catherine E. Creeger and Malcolm Gardner is a fundamental text for many intermediate and advanced students of biodynamic agriculture ā one to which the biodynamic practitioner will refer again and again over the years. In addition to the eight lectures, this version includes four discussions by Steiner, color plates of Steinerās chalk drawings, the address to the members of the Agricultural Experimental Circle, Steinerās report to members of the Anthroposophical Society after the lectures, Steinerās handwritten notes to the Agriculture Course, further agricultural indications given by Steiner, and āNew Directions in Agriculture,ā by Ehrenfried Pfeiffer (a colleague of Steinerās who brought biodynamic agriculture to North America).
