I'm going to keep this locked. So if you want to add any just PM me the links, I can keep some sort of order on it then, I'll pull any good ones from some of the threads as well. We are a bit weak in some fields but hopefully it will fill out as we go along.

Started putting the dates when added to help keep track

I think we'll have a change of plan to the link's bit. I'll leave it open for you all to post and then keep editing the opening post to include the links. So feel free to post your farming links here

Any links related to frog farming.

Thanks!

[jandtaa]

jandtaa's farming related documents

A growing collection of PDF files can be viewed here (to download ; click on the "more" button and then the save document option )

There's a strong bias towards organics/permaculture/agroforestry although the documents cover many other aspects of farming in the tropics including:

growing tropical fruit

solonaceous crops

aquaculture

livestock rearing (pigs,chickens,goats,ducks etc)

mushroom cultivation and more

Happy reading folks  Jandtaa

Paying a little back for the inputs and advice I've got on "where do you sell it?" thread.

www.msds.com

Gives safety materials data sheet for over 3,5 million different chemicals in use.
The first five or ten MSDS you download are for free. The rest is a one time fee.

Should be of help to anybody that runs a farm and most probably will come in touch with chemicals

High there,

Thanx for the links, some are great! Anyone else like to post his favorite website list? I'm actually trying to collect them.

I found a plantsearcher that actually live searches such a collection of good sites. Just it doesn't mention such a list. Also I can't give you the link, because this forum doesn't allow me

Anyway most lists on the internet have outdated websites.


Anyone?
