This research focuses on “Natural Agriculture” as organic farming in the early 20th century interwar period. “Natural Agriculture,” a form of farming believed to have derived from the “Life Reform Movement,” is one of the origins of German organic farming. Articles published between 1925 and 1943 in the monthly magazine Bebauet die Erde were reviewed to reveal the theory and practice of “Natural Agriculture” and its historical significance. This magazine was a platform for communication for “Natural Agriculture” supporters and it published articles about the practice and theory of “Natural Agriculture.” “Natural Agriculture’s” distinctive feature is that it attracted city people to settle in the countryside and engage in “Natural Agriculture.” Practicing horticulture in the countryside appeared to assure a safe food supply and realize the ideals of the “Life Reform Movement.” Although the “Life Reform Movement” was connected to criticism of the city, “Natural Agriculture” supported new science and technology in the beginning of the 20th century and introduced these for reference and consideration by researchers and engineers. This study describes the “Life Reform Movement’s” outlook on nature, focusing on the theory and practice of “Natural Agriculture.” Those who supported “Natural Agriculture” pursued health of not only humans but also that of livestock and soil. They believed that the mutual improvement of all health conditions was intertwined. They also advocated introducing “small scale horticulture without livestock.” As a result, they accepted that agricultural practice in eastern Asia, especially China and Japan, realized the ideals of the “Life Reform Movement.” The activities of “Natural Agriculture”, as a part of the “Life Reform Movement,” were only a niche activity in Germany. However, it is remarkable that there was a distinct group that paid attention to the relation between diet and health, soil conservation, and pursuit of high-quality farm products.
