(Hügelkultur is said to replicate the natural process of decomposition that occurs on forest floors, however in natural ecosystems wood would be present at the soil surface.[5] Trees that fall in a forest often become nurse logs[8] decaying and providing ecological facilitation to seedlings. As the wood decays, its porosity increases, allowing it to store water like a sponge. The water is slowly released back into the environment, benefiting nearby plants.[1]
These beds are also considered beneficial because of the airpockets created by the settling caused by the wood's decomposition. This gives the benefits of tilling, without the destruction of soil microorganisms that come with tilling ("every time you till the soil, you lose 30% of the organic material (microbial soil life is killed, and plants feast on their bodies)"[16]). And, the organic material of the rotting wood also houses beneficial soil microorganisms.[16]
Hügelkultur beds are said to be ideal for areas where the underlying soil is of poor quality or compacted. They tend to be easier to maintain due to their relative height above the ground.[8]
The decomposition speed of organic material depends on the carbon to nitrogen ratio of the material, among other factors. Wood breaks down relatively slowly because it has one of the highest carbon to nitrogen ratios of all organic matter that is used in composting. If the wood is not processed into smaller pieces with larger surface area to speed up chemical reactions, breakdown is even slower. The decomposition process may, in the short term, take more nitrogen from the soil through microbial activity (nitrogen immobilization), if not enough nitrogen is available.[17] Thus, in the short term, the fertility of the soil may be decreased before, eventually, perhaps after one to two years, the nitrogen level is increased past the original level.[17] Traditionally, therefore, it is said to be advantageous to balance "browns" (e.g. woodchippings) with "greens" (e.g. grass clippings) for efficient composting, and to allow compost to become well-rotted before applying it to a bed, to prevent competition between soil bacteria and plants for nitrogen, which reduces yield.)

Mountains of Organic Fertilizers are going to be needed
along with Mountains of Organic mediums such as
Sawdust, Wood chips, Grass Clippings, Dry leaves, Pine needles,
Rotting wood (not treated wood), Straw,
Organic hay, Wood ash,
Charcoal (from wood) ,
and Organic Manures .
Of course, wood should be burned as a fuel when turning it into charcoal or ash.
Bamboo and Hardwood should be planted towards at least the production of charcoal and firewood.
Herbicides in manure & hay can kill vegetable plants. What better way to fight Agricultural pollution than to buy organic and grow organic?
Every community should unite to grow their own food, store potable water, recycle everything, and produce their own biofuels.
They have been able to organize mountains of asphalt & concrete. Let us now organize mountains of organic agricultural necessities.
Thank you and
Hare Krsna!
