How does nature respond to the massive level of inputs that agriculture has thrown at it over the last decades?
No, the inputs, massive amounts of chemicals, right? Um, obviously, when it rains, the streams, the creeks, the rivers get, get filled up with a lot of these, these chemicals run off into the, the lakes and, and what does nature do? It fights back.
An explosion of bacteria that digest these problems and try to get that water, that lake, that ecosystem back into a state of health.
And so when you go to the doctor with an infection, a bacterial or fungal infection, that's nature saying, "You are a...
Well, you're a defective organism, and we wanna digest you and put you back in the ground where you belong and start over."
So what's causing it? Nutrient deficiencies and toxicities, pretty much always across the board.
So if we address those things, if we know how to remove the toxins and put the really high grade, uh, minerals, vitamins, the, the real nutrients, not the synthetics, not the rock dust, we're talking the real stuff after it's been digested by biology, that's when magic starts to happen.
And what can we do to kickstart the biology on our operations to overcome that response?
There's, there's a couple different sources that we recommend to people when we consult with them, things like that, and then inoculating it with the biology that we have in our boxes, of course, and the nutrients for the, for the quick snap, bringing things back to life quickly.
But, but yeah, the dry spreads combined with, with the, uh, foliar spray is, is, is really how to do it.
And people can do it either quickly if they really wanna go all in right away, or they can do it gradually over a period of time, make it more affordable, you know, those sort of things.
But, but putting all the, all those minerals, all those nutrients back, and then putting the bio... reinstalling the biology into the soil and letting it work its magic, that's really...
It's fun to get... you know, have people call me and go, "The cows are stacking right on top of everything you guys sent me." So, you know, that's, that's nice.
