The soil is the 'creative material' of most of the basic needs of life. Creation starts with a handful of dust.
When you correct cation balance, you have addressed soil chemistry, which improves the physical structure of the soil.
The correction of cation balance and the provision of minimum levels of micronutrients takes care of the chemical part of soil productivity and health.
The essential understanding involves a recognition that the purpose of cation balancing is to stimulate soil biology, and much of the beneficial response relates to firing up this workforce.
Comprehensive Albrecht Method soil testing with detailed nutrient balance reports.
Identify nutrient deficiencies in your crops with laboratory-accurate tissue testing.
Test irrigation and drinking water for optimal farm management.
Dr. Albrecht saw a direct link between soil quality and food quality, drawing a direct connection between poor quality forage crops and ill health in livestock.
Feed the soil to feed the plant is a vital concept of the Albrecht Model of soil building.
