“In the Zone….” ZONE AND SECTOR PLANNING
Permaculture Design Course SISL 2008

Natural patterns inform our design. Zone and Sector Planning is a key tool for a permaculture
designer. ZONE AND SECTOR regulate plant, animal, structure placement. OUR GOAL IS TO
REMOVE FACTORS AFFECTING PRODUCTIVITY AND HEALTH.
“Zone and Sector
analysis is the primary energy conserving placement pattern for the whole system” – Bill
Mollison
Zone planning:
Situate elements on site according to the amount of attention or resources
required. Zone and Sector analysis helps to locate elements and manage energies on a site.
Determining a zone location and dimension is based on frequency of visits.
- Locate components relative to energy sources on site, and to maintenance schedule (how
much time or energy is required by this site component?) Each zone is characterized by a
certain set of plants and animals, management strategies and infrastructure
- Area in an approximate radius where elements are put according to energy use, quantity
of yield, frequency of care, nutrient recycling
- Zone planning depends on needs:
o
The number of times you need or want to visit the plant, animal, structure, or
space.
o
The number of times the plant, animal or structure needs you to visit it for
appropriate care.
- Zones depend on energy available ON SITE (people ,animals, machines, waste, fuel, etc)
- Each site location offers different opportunities to define zones, and potentially different
activity centers
- Zones can shift over the seasons
- Elements that can be woven into any of the zones: sacred spaces, building soil, app tech,
water collection, wind breaks and shelterbelts
Rural Scenario
Zone 0=
The house. “We need to get our house in order, our garden in order, our place of living
so that it supports us” (Bill Mollison)
Zone 1=
Frequent visits and observation, Close to buildings, most intensive and accessable. Visit
multiple times a day
- seedling, small animals, culinary herbsComponents needing continual observation, frequent
visits, work input, complex techniques, such as home garden. High productivity and net import of
soil fertility from rest of landscape.
Zone 2=
Visit once a day Less intensively managed components like heavily mulched orchards,
domestic animals whose sheds adjoin Zone 1. Main crop veggies that require more space than
available in zone 1. –less intensive, trellis, small pond, hedge, home orchard, forage for
livestock
Zone 3=
Less intensive visit a few times a week.
“Farm” zone, grain and fodder, animal self-forage systems, windbreaks, hardy trees and native
species. –commercial crops, green manure
Zone 4=
Minimally Managed Zone
Managed for wild gathering, forest and fuel needs of the household, pasture or range, planted to
hardy, unpruned or volunteer trees, some introduced animals. – border forest wilderness-
managed for wild gathering, forest and fuel needs, pasture
Zone 5=
Wilderness, or land where the interests of wild plants and animals take top priority, and
yields for human use only taken when this benefits wild species. -This is where we learn the rules
we try to apply elsewhere!!!
