 BIO-DYNAMIC
AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION OF AUSTRALIA
In 1953 the Bio-Dynamic Agricultural Association of Australia (BDAAA)
was founded as a training body to aid farmers in developing the skills
and techniques to change from conventional to Bio-Dynamic farming. All
members are bonafide owner/operator farmers, who form a purposeful
Guild, which also mentors newly converting farmers by providing support
and advice.
Bio-Dynamic farmers develop skills to "culture" the soil. (Hence the
original meaning of the word AGRI-CULTURE, or soil-culture). Every
aspect of primary production should be based on the understanding of
the dynamic interplay of soil life as basis for plant and animal
health, and the reciprocal influence thereof. Due to the workings of
this dynamic principle, plant and soil become effective mediators of
quality food - essential for man and animal.

BIO-DYNAMIC RESEARCH INSTITUTE
|
 The Bio-Dynamic Research Institute was
founded in 1957, and is involved in research of the Bio-Dynamic
Agricultural Method. In 1967 it was vested with the rights and
supervision of the DEMETER Trademark in Australia. Part of this role is
the certification of DEMETER quality products. This activity is
recognised by the Australian Government through the Australian
Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) which audits Organic and
Bio-Dynamic Standards to meet international requirements.
Once the required standard has been established, operators may apply to
the Bio-Dynamic Research Institute (BDRI) to become certified users of
the DEMETER Trademark. This is an international trademark which has
been used in Australia since 1953 to symbolise quality produce achieved
by using the Bio-Dynamic Method. |
