[QUOTE="marco, post: 6477524, member: 618"] You don't become President of the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Science_Society_of_America']Soil Science Society of America[/URL] by being an idiot. and to say that he was just playing around with a few pots of soil in a lab is a lazy argument will. if calcium loosens soil and magnesium tightens it there has to be a point give or take a few % where things are easier for plant life. now if your soil is biologically dead using the albrecht system isn't going to help much. the percentages change slightly depending on the tcec of your soil. if you keep sending your samples to the same lab that consistently use the same extraction processes you should be getting pretty consistent results. if you do an albrecht and then do a plant sap analysis and find the same nutrients to be lacking would you consider it to be a good guide? when we sampled our farm we didn't say which fields were problamatic with livestock health problems, but on the results there was notes at the bottom of these fields with warnings (percentage of k higher than %mg) which ment the plant was taking up excess k and by grazing it so were the animals which led to tetany, and the recomendation to spread dolomitic lime on some and kierserite on other field. now show me any other system in the world that can give a farmer that kind of advice? maybe i see it more because i'm a livestock farmer as well. you mightn't see a yield loss of .2 or .3 a hectare in a grain crop but you sure as hell see ill thrive and sick animals. if you stick to percentages it makes lots of sense, ratios change depending on cec so are harder to follow and the synic in me says it just so people need to be paid to explian said ratio. 70% ca and mg over 11% for the majority of soils. (lighter soils with cec/tec under 10 will need more mg. here are some of his publications, [LIST] [*][I]Variable Levels of Biological Activity in Sanborn Field After Fifty Years of Treatment[/I], Soil Science, 1938 [*][I]Animals Recognize Good Soil Treatment[/I], Better Crops With Plant Food Magazine, 1940 [*][I]Organic Matter - The Life of the Soil[/I], Farmer's Week, Ohio State University, 1940 [*][I]Good Horses Require Good Soils[/I], Horse and Mule Association of America, 1940 [*][I]Calcium-Potassium-Phosphorus Relation as a Possible Factor in Ecological Array of Plants[/I], Journal of the American Society of Agronomy, 1940 [*][I]Making Organic Matter Effective in Soil[/I], The Ohio Vegetable and Potato Growers Association, 1940 [*][I]Calcium as a Factor in Seed Germination[/I], Journal of the American Society of Agronomy, 1941 [*][I]The Soil as a Farm Commodity or a Factory[/I], Journal of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, 1941 [*][I]Soil Organic Matter and Ion Availability for Plants[/I], Soil Science, 1941 [*][I]Biological Assays of Soil Fertility[/I], Soil Science Society of America, 1941 [*][I]Potassium in the Soil Colloid Complex and Plant Nutrition[/I], Soil Science, 1941 [*][I]Feed Efficiency in Terms of Biological Assays of Soil Treatments[/I], Soil Science Society of America, 1942 [*][I]Health Depends on Soil[/I], The Land, 1942 [*][I]Soil Management By Nature or By Man?[/I], Western Soils Co., 1942 [*][I]Soil Fertility and the Human Species[/I], American Chemical Society, Chemical and Engineering News, 1942 [*][I]We Are What We Eat[/I] - St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 1943 [*][I]Why Do Farmers Plow?[/I], Better Crops With Plant Food Magazine, 1943 [*][I]Magnesium Depletion in Relation to Some Cropping Systems and Soil Treatments[/I], Soil Science, 1943 [*][I]We Are What We Eat[/I], St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 1943 [*][I]Make the Grass Greener on Your Side of the Fence[/I], The Business of Farming, 1943 [*][I]Soil and Livestock[/I], The Land, 1943 [*][I]Fertilize the Soil Then the Crop[/I], University of Missouri, 1943 [*][I]Soil Fertility and National Nutrition[/I], Journal of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, 1944 [*][I]Better Pastures Depend on Soil Fertility[/I], The Fertilizer Review, 1944 [*][I]Taking Our Soil for Granted[/I], The Ranchman, 1944 [*][I]Soil Fertility, Food Source[/I], The Technology Review, 1944 [*][I]Mobilizing the Fertilizer Resources of Our Nation's Soil[/I], 28th Annual Convention of the National Crushed Stone Association, 1945 [*][I]How Long Do the Effects from Fertilizer Last?[/I], Better Crops With Plant Food Magazine, 1945 [*][I]Food Quality from the Soil[/I], Consumer's Research, Inc., 1945 [*][I]Vegetable Crops in Relation to Soil Fertility[/I], Food Research, 1945 [*][I]Discrimination in Food Selection by Animals[/I], The Scientific Monthly, 1945 [*][I]Vegetable Crops in Relation to Soil Fertility-V.
