Or perhaps they are not aware of the growing interest in the practices that KO is describing (there are some in ND that are). The Soil Will Save Us is not the last word on this subject but is a fast-paced and entertaining shot across the bow of mainstream thinking about land use. The book makes a lot of interesting points but I would have been more skeptical of it had I not read "Revolution" first, as that book gives more detailed arguments about soil health.
