Learn why biological farming practices matter to farmers everywhere

Farmers from around the world are working to improve their soil biology with practices that work with and not against soil biology.  Here are the top three reasons that biological farming practices matter today and to future generations.

Potential to Reduce Inputs

Many farmers are able to significantly reduce their fertilizer inputs by improving their biodiversity and soil heath with a biological approaching to farming.

Strong soil biology can help unlock soil nutrients like phosphorus and fix atmospheric nitrogen. 

This can mean reduced fertilizer needs during the season, a significant cost savings potential for most growers.

Many Genesis Ag customers use products such as Revita-N, Morphos, and Carbose to help improve their soil and are already seeing a reduction in input costs.

Improved Soil Health

Improving your soil health with biological farming practices can mean better use of nutrients locked in the soil, healthier overall plants, and improved biodiversity.

Heathy soil can also help boost a plant’s immune system for the potential to resist diseases and pathogens.

By focusing on soil health, farmers are able to take a long term view on their farming goals.

Sustainability

Ongoing depletion of the world’s topsoil is a critical problem that most people are not even aware of. Commercial farming methods have increased productivity levels throughout the world but that success comes at a high price. 

Soil fertility continues to be lost at an an alarming rate through the over application of chemical fertilizers, tillage practices, and erosion. 

Restoring soil biology can help to offset many of these issues by bringing soil back to life and making it sustainable for future generations.
