[QUOTE="Richard III, post: 3377378, member: 933"] None sorry, I would love to see some if there are any out there. I agree that FYM ect. is good for the soil, but unfortunately not a complete substitute for the sticky breakdown resistant products of mycorrhizal fungi. One of the problems we seem to have created with modern agriculture is that we have completely ignored this point. Modern varieties have smaller root systems that need to be spoon fed and don't bother with mycorrhizal associations. Fungicides and cultivations kill them, and as you say high phosphate levels cause problems. I certainly don't have the answers to this, I do like ley/arable farming systems though, especially ones like [USER=801]@martian[/USER] 's that push the boundaries. I realise we can't all farm like this though, there just isn't the market for meat. [/QUOTE]
