[QUOTE="bactosoil, post: 2023098, member: 43506"] [I].. Farmers are far better at knowing the soil and land in real time - [B]IF THEY ONLY LOOK INTO THEIR SOIL WITH A MICROSCOPE[/B] - than any scientist with a mass spectrometer .." The main scientific knowledge for a sustainable fertil soil is around since over 100 years. Ask Raoul H. Francé and Annie Francé Harrar.[/I] Most Farmers are walking analysts who have an encyclopedic knowledge of their land and its history and being able to dig soil up touch it feel it and smell it and react to what is found without any equipment is invaluable . Microscopes open further worlds but there are just so many influences when you drill down in to it to take into account. When you start to look at mutual vegetative partnerships and the effects on things like bacterial /fungal populations and quorum sensing you could spend a lifetime studying,but all the other influences have to be merged to really create answers and that could be decades away.Its amazing how many things mentioned in the opening video are contained in farming manuals and farm chemistry books I have from the 18th and 19 century , symbiosis and balance though seem to be the key factors in agroforestry [/QUOTE]
