One of their biggest concerns is permaculture's advocacy of non-native species and weeds such as Tagasaste (tree lucerne)--a highly productive perennial grown for animal fodder and for its ability to fix soil nitrogen.
The living culture whose time has come: while permaculture has had a low profile in the West, it has been the key to self-sufficiency for many people in the developing world. Given that climate change and sustainable development are dominating world headlines, the concept is finally beginning to get mainstream recognition in Australia--the home of permaculture.
