Soil Building Process: The Path to Restoring soil-conditioning and plant nutrition

By OLIVER MIA

Soil building is a plant driven process whereby carbon is sequestered from the atmosphere and locked into the soil and in so doing, changes the overall biological, chemical and physical properties of the soil in a beneficial way. Soil organic matter can be divided into 3 parts - the living, the dead and the very dead. The living part huge diversity of micro-organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, algae and nematodes; also, plant roots, insects, earthworms, and larger animals.The dead part- dead plant roots, crop residues, root exudates, deceased micro and macro organisms, and animal manures. This is the active, or easily decomposed, fraction of organic matter that is the main supply of food for the various organisms.
