“The ultimate goal of farming is not the growing of crops, but the cultivation and perfection of human beings” . – Masanobu Fukuoka
The One-Straw Revolution Project is a revolutionary initiative focused on the versatile and sustainable use of straw in various applications. From mulching crops to constructing buildings with straw and mud, this project aims to promote environmentally friendly uses of rice straw from the Albufera de Valencia region while adhering to the principles of the circular economy.
Through crop mulching with straw, a natural and efficient approach is encouraged to enhance soil health, conserve moisture, and reduce the need for chemical pesticides and fertilizers. At the same time, straw construction offers a sustainable and cost-effective alternative for building resilient structures, utilizing local materials and minimizing environmental impact.
This project seeks to disseminate knowledge and techniques regarding the use of straw in multiple contexts, ranging from agriculture to construction, promoting the adoption of more sustainable and regenerative practices. Embracing the philosophy of the circular economy, this project drives comprehensive utilization of straw and its reuse in closed cycles, thereby promoting resource conservation and waste reduction.
Join the One-Straw Revolution Project and be part of this transformation towards more ecological and sustainable agriculture and construction, where straw becomes a valuable resource to nurture the land, build cozy homes, and foster a harmonious relationship with our natural environment.
