In most cases, it is necessary to build a fence, and this is expensive.

Raised beds can be a good solution even on infertile lands. It is more convenient to spread imported soil on the beds rather than spread it over the entire plot. Fertility is maintained by the compost layer, which is located under the soil layer.
The problem of arid regions is also solved. In this case, the fence for a high bed is coated from the inside with bitumen mastic or covered with film, and rolled waterproofing material is laid on the bottom (on the mesh) (roofing felt will quickly rot, so it is better to use something modern like hydroisol). It will not be possible to achieve complete waterproofing, but it will retain moisture inside in sufficient quantities.
Carrots are the same. The best ones are on the croatia mobile database bed, although the same variety was planted on the regular one.
As you can see, with a balanced approach, you can solve almost any problem. High beds have few disadvantages, but they are not without them:
Labor-intensive process. Again, it takes time to make fences, and there are also significant amounts of soil and plant debris to move, which is hard work.
Mole crickets and other similar creatures feel great in rotting leaves, branches, and bark. You have to fight them.
Fertility has to be maintained by renewing or completely replacing the “filling”.
That's all the disadvantages. If you decide to arrange high beds, be prepared for a considerable amount of work. But the harvest will be many times greater. For a test, you can make one or two beds. And then decide whether you need them or not.

There are no strict recommendations on this matter, and there can't be: the conditions in the country are very different, and so are the people. There are sizes that many consider optimal.
On one plot there are very high beds and not very…
