This Brochure is the result of scientific developments by the engineer-inventor V.V. Fokin, the author of an unusual garden tool - a hand-held flat cutter that cultivates the soil without turning over the soil, i.e. with minimal interference in the internal world of the soil. The brochure tells how the “peaceful coexistence” of the farmer and the inhabitants of the soil allows one to grow good crops “without back pain and calluses on the hands.”
