  1. I remember driving through degraded land around Madurai, India with some NGO guys. They were real interested as I explained how they could buy some of this land cheaply and turn it into highly productive farmland in about 5 years. It seems hard to believe, but as you can see by searching our blog there are lots of fairly fast, easy methods to do this.
