Where is the truth, between the 6-hectare field that feeds 4 people, the 50m\u00b2 garden that allows you to be self-sufficient or the permaculture forest that feeds you without doing anything? The aim of this article is to put some reality back into the concepts and preconceived ideas about food self-sufficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfood.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/serre-forges-les-eaux-1024x652.jpg\" alt=\"self-sufficiency in food and vegetable gardening  \" class=\"wp-image-266761\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Self-sufficiency in food and vegetable gardening<\/em>&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food self-sufficiency with a vegetable garden?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we talk about what you can do with a vegetable garden or a greenhouse, it\u2019s a good idea to talk <strong>about what you can\u2019t do<\/strong>. First, let\u2019s go back to basics: what nourishes us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a nutshell, the body first needs energy (calories), which is found in carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Then there are the elements needed for the body to function (vitamins, minerals and trace elements). Needs will vary greatly depending on the person\u2019s physical activity and the season. A manual, physical job or working outdoors in winter will consume more calories. Conversely, being sedentary while teleworking does not require the same amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is estimated that the average person needs <strong>2000 kcal per day<\/strong>. However, calories are primarily found in oils, oilseeds (nuts, etc.), cereals, honey, meat, eggs, etc. For example, <strong>for every 100g<\/strong>, sunflower oil provides 900 kcal, bread or pasta 350 kcal, hummus 140 kcal, beans 100 kcal and tomatoes 18 kcal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/myfood.typeform.com\/pioneer-en\" style=\"background-color:#2ea736\">I\u2019d like advice on how to become self-sufficient<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Producing oil or cereals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when it comes to producing calories, we shouldn\u2019t expect to produce most of our calories in the vegetable garden or the greenhouse. What&#8217;s needed is an ecosystemic approach and a quest for diversity. Self-production of oil and cereals is not impossible, but requires land, time and equipment. <strong>For oil<\/strong>, you need to plant a walnut tree, a hazelnut tree, an olive tree, etc. and invest in a manual or electric press. <strong>For cereals<\/strong>, small-scale wheat growing is possible, but it all depends on how involved you are. Take a good look at the time required and the investment in equipment. For small-scale cereal production, you could also consider growing quinoa, even though it has a lower calorie content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, greenhouse and container growing can be an interesting way of <strong>producing pulses<\/strong>. For example, growing chickpeas, broad beans, etc. will provide a useful source of calories, carbohydrates and plant proteins. It is possible to expect several dozen kilos per m\u00b2 of chickpeas from a <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.myfood.eu\/products\/perma-m-vegetable-garden-ready-to-grow\">permaculture container crop<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a household busy with work, children, day-to-day activities, etc., <strong>it\u2019s best to focus on fruit, vegetables and nutritious foods<\/strong>. In this case, leave the grain production to your favorite farmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfood.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/bac-perma-4-edited-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-266768\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Growing in self-irrigating containers increases yield per m\u00b2 and reduces water requirements.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables, how far can you go?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This way to the vegetables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In concrete terms, with a 22m<sup>2<\/sup> Myfood <a href=\"https:\/\/myfood.eu\/our-greenhouse\/smart-greenhouse\/\">Family Production greenhouse<\/a> equipped with 5 permaculture tanks (perma module) and twenty-four vertical aquaponics towers (with extension module) &#8211; <strong>Investment: \u20ac13,000 incl.

They\u2019re easy to grow in aquaponics or in containers. The greenhouse (especially with an extension) can also house your potted Mediterranean plants: lemon, orange, grapefruit or mandarin trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if you want to produce enough fruit <strong>to be self-sufficient<\/strong>, it\u2019s essential to have several <strong>fruit trees<\/strong> on your plot (apples, pears, plums, etc.) and to use conservation methods for the winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfood.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/myfood_16-OK-654-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-266748\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Basket of vegetables harvested at the end of summer<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I produce protein at home?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For protein production, here are the options available to you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raising edible fish<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The great advantage of aquaponics, apart from its environmental benefits, is that you can raise fish and eat them. You need to choose the right variety to suit your climate and the time of year. Properly fed, a farmed fish can easily reach 500g in a year (maximum size). You can therefore expect to produce up <strong>to thirty kilos of fish a year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can introduce fish as your production system evolves, so check out <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.myfood.eu\/docs\/demarrer-en-aquaponie\">our recommendations<\/a> for choosing fish and introducing them into the system. With a little experience and success, you can then choose to switch to edible fish with carp for all seasons, trout for winter or tilapia in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfood.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20181113_112445-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-266781\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Carp farmed in a greenhouse, maximum weight 500g each<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eggs or chickens?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another easy way to source protein is to set up <strong>a chicken coop<\/strong>. It\u2019s common for people who have never had chickens to have a preconceived notion of keeping them. In reality, if you set up a well-configured henhouse with an automatic door, simple cleaning, and water and seed distribution, hens really aren\u2019t a constraint. It\u2019s not time-consuming, noisy or smelly. All you need to do is give them enough space and grass. You\u2019ll have an average of <strong>one egg per hen per day<\/strong> (of much higher quality than supermarket eggs), and you can feed the hens all your kitchen scraps &#8211; practical!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vitamins, minerals and trace elements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We underestimate the need for <strong>vitamins, minerals<\/strong> (calcium, magnesium, etc.) and <strong>trace elements<\/strong> (iron, copper, zinc, etc.). What\u2019s more, we also greatly overestimate the nutritional content of the fresh food we buy today, even in organic shops or local markets. Soil impoverishment, modified seeds and monoculture inevitably lead to a significant reduction in essential micro-nutrients. So, it\u2019s important to eat ultra-fresh, nutritious food. In addition, \u2018superfoods\u2019 are recommended as part of a complete and balanced diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spirulina protection at home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u2018miracle\u2019 solution for vitamin A, B, iron, iodine and more: fresh spirulina. Fresh spirulina. We&#8217;ve already talked about this in a recent article: \u201cSpirulina, a super food\u201d and we\u2019ll be talking about it again soon in a specific article.

The term \u201cmicrogreens\u201d refers to the second stage of germination. They differ from sprouted seeds in that they are at a more advanced stage of growth. It\u2019s worth noting that 30g of young broccoli sprouts provide a quantity of antioxidants equivalent to 1kg of mature broccoli!

Finally, it\u2019s worth noting that the Western diet today is generally far too high in calories. We often eat more than we need. <strong>More aware eating would help us to become more resilient<\/strong> and self-sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this article has helped you to see things more clearly, don\u2019t hesitate to share it with your friends and family here:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Living self-sufficiently on your own plot of land with your own greenhouse?
