Discover how the soil food web works in harmony with plants to produce a number of benefits including:
Increased Yields
Protection from Pests and Diseases
Reduced Irrigation Requirements
No need for Fertilizers
Weed Suppression Protection against Soil Erosion
Carbon Sequestration
Protection of Insects and Birds
With the Soil Food Web in place, the plant is nutrient rich and therefore better able to protect itself, whilst diseases are inhibited by the conditions in the soil.
Climate Change poses an existential threat to humanity. Soil Carbon Sequestration is widely being recognized as a part of the solution to this problem.
Beneficial bacteria produce glues that facilitate the formation of microaggregates – small clumps of Bacteria, organic matter and soil particles (sand, slit and clay). Fungal hyphae then bind these microaggregates together forming larger clumps, known as macroaggregates. As more materials are bound together, voids are created and structure is formed.
