TREATING YOUR SOIL LIKE DIRT! There is a lot more to soil fertility than just measuring the minerals
Important as they are, by far the most simplistic measurement is to count the number of earthworms. It is an abundance of these hard working creatures that give your soil it’s porosity and improves water infiltration and air space. This allows the roots to go deeper into the soil, exploring more cracks and
crevices, finding more nutrients and moving the bacteria around. You already know that your soil really is your most valuable asset and that the health of the soil can directly affect the yield and health of your crops. The more we understand how the ‘life in the soil’ works the more we can relate it to our own health.
THE SOIL IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE STOMACH OF YOUR PLANT G Solutions
Above: Folds of intestine have Villi and Micro-villi to increase the surface area and maximise nutrient uptake. Right: Root hairs on a wheat plant increase the surface area and maximise nutrient uptake (an inside out intestine)
When humans consume poor food or poisons, this affects the ‘life in the gut’ and we become ill - so it is with your soil. Too many of the NATURAL beneficial micro-organisms have been killed off allowing the pathogenic predators to dominate your soil’s rhizosphere.
It is these pathogens - Take All, Club Root, Fusarium and Pythium, that cause disease in your crop. Your soil’s ‘Natural Army’ has been wiped out and the chemical defences are now breaking down as the pathogens quickly adapt to the poisons you are applying.
