Because the common trunk to these 2 practices is observation! In vegetable permaculture, it is recommended to observe the land devoted to cultivation for a period of one year. There to see the cycle of seasons, observe which plants grow spontaneously (bio-indicator plants), draw conclusions on the nature of the soil. Observe the sunshine and its counterpart, the shade, possible winds, the water cycle, the slope, the presence of possible pests, neighbors who work in conventional agriculture and generously spread their pesticides ... Careful observation and careful interaction will more effectively integrate human intervention into the project. Often, important creative levers to reduce dependence on non-renewable energy or non-recyclable materials are deployed during the observation phase. It is only when all this data is available that the permacultivator takes out his pencil to develop a permacultuous design (project).
