Soil Improvements for Maximum Microbial Activity

What’s really happening beneath the soil surface?

If we want to grow nutrient-dense, resilient crops, we need to build an environment where soil microbes thrive. That means:

Keeping soil covered—no more bare, sunbaked fields!

Breaking compaction layers so roots can reach deeper moisture and nutrients

Feeding microbes with cover crops and living root exudates

Fix the soil environment, and the microbes will do the rest.
