Abstract

The natural farming in Japan mainly includes Mokich Okada’s natural farming theory and Masanobu Fukuoka’s natural farming theory in terms of genre. Natural farming was proposed and implemented to deal with the anabatic soil degradation and food safety problems. Among them, Mokich Okada’s natural farming theory advocates the restoration of the agricultural tradition of the past and combination with modern agricultural science and technology; Masanobu Fukuoka’s natural farming theory advocates a complete return to natural and traditional farming and puts forward a set of green agricultural cultivation methods focusing on injurious insect control with beneficial insect, weed control with green herbaceous plants, soil reclamation with grass, nontoxic and cost-reducing method based on the Japanese ancient agricultural books. Their natural farming theories have been widely popularized and applied in Japan, and its successful experience is worthy of study and reference for China.
