Permaculture Design Principles and Practices Nowadays, as the world is inevitably confronted with increasing ecological problems, permaculture, through its principles and methods, becomes the light of faith for those who want to live by nature. Permaculture, the practice of which is based on the integration of biological functions with each other and also providing food and shelter, is considered a parallel approach that could be an alternative to the conventional productive and intensive methods that have come to rule modern societies. Permaculture consists of a set of deeply thought-through design fundamentals. These are the reins that hold practitioners and empower them to construct stable and self-sufficient ecosystems. These principles are not only principles, but the philosophy behind these conceptions inspires us to keep up with the nature around us, which involves our observation, interaction, and adaptation to it. When we come to grips with and act on these tenets, we discover the way to a more sustainable and meaningful way of organizing life. Permaculture is organized around twelve conditions. Observe and Interact: Permaculture targets at the beginning point to establish a very profound appreciation of the indigenous/local environment, as well as its network of interdependent systems. Through its close observation of the prevailing natural patterns, the canvas on which the permaculture designers draw looks for opportunities to harmonize with the surrounding landscape and create integrated systems that function synergistically with the landscape. Catch and Store Energy: Permaculture makes us realize that renewable or non-renewable resources have to be conserved and used properly, and it doesn't matter what types of these resources they are: sunlight, water, or organic matter. Based on this doctrine, they are going to apply such energy sources as solar, water harvesting, and composting systems to minimize waste while aiming to maximize productivity. Obtain a Yield: Although most people associate the idea of permaculture with self-reliance, it is simultaneously understood that a system has to produce on-ground results too. Through the development of systems that reliably give input, these communities would then be able to provide food, energy, or other resources, which would in turn create a thriving, self-sustaining community. Apply Self-Regulation and Accept Feedback: In applying the permaculture principle, practitioners are aware that every action bears any purpose whatsoever, not only the intended outcomes. Many times, the companies may not seem to provide solutions to customers' problems. Remote support is necessary for such issues, and it is the only way they may be able to make adjustments and adapt. Use and Value Renewable Resources and Services: Permaculture solutions provide for the implementation of renewable resources, inclusive of solar, wind, and biomass, as well as finite and non-renewable resources. The principle extends further to support the fact that all ecosystems, starting from the smallest, have countless
