i am reading a book called 'The Rebel Farmer' by Sepp Holzer. have you heard of him ray? he is very famous and travels around the world teaching people. he farms at 1500 meters above sea level in Austria at his farm called Krameterhoff, and grows many things that shouldn't be growing at that cold of an area. i am half way through the book and will be getting into his veggie/grain growing here soon. he believes 'nature is simple and perfect'. there is a wheat that he grows that out produces any other on the planet, and a perennial corn. can't wait to get to those chapters.
His book is soemtimes hard to find. Right now it is being sold on ebay although the price is high:
