Introduction

Open Source Agroecology (OSA) is an agricultural system associated with the Open Source Ecology project.

Open Source Agroecology is a system for carrying out land stewardship where open source equipment and techniques are used. It is an extension of permaculture which explicitly addresses the need for appropriate equipment in successful regeneration of food, fuel, fiber, and other natural production systems.
