Yes, the digging fork is suitable for all types of soil. The long lever of the handle tube, the sturdy tines and the large tread surface allow the use even in heavy conditions.
The humus content is increased by regular addition of organic material (green cuttings, compost) and by the promotion of soil fauna (microorganisms, earthworms, isopods…). This requires gentle tillage with a digging fork. Complete ploughing or rotary tilling of the soil should be avoided.
We have compiled further information under humus build-up in the garden .

It all depends. If you value high-quality fruits and vegetables and grow a large part of them yourself, you can save up to several thousand euros per year and household. Organic vegetables have a higher price than conventionally grown ones, especially if they are purchased regionally rather than at discount stores. A home garden of average size, if well used and seasonal, can provide a family with plenty of organic quality fruits and vegetables throughout the year.
