Human activities have impacted weather-related disasters. Are farms and ranches helpless in the face of nature’s fury? The answer is a resounding no! Implementing a permaculture-based plan of resilient farms and ranches makes it possible to bounce back quickly from nature’s setbacks and minimize or eliminate them in the first place.
