    ***Is the fact that most of the bacteria and humus in the soil being destroyed by pesticides is leading to the increase in the incidences of flash floods in the south or wherever they grow lots of mono-crop GMO corn, and soya?***

      +B Charron Pesticides, monoculture certainly don't helping to maintain healthy soil structures which in turn mean no ability to hold water. But flash floods are more a feature of changes to our weather patterns.

      Yes, monocrops and insecticides are literally suicidal with regard our ecosystems. I have yet to see around where I live, anyone plough a field with respect to where the water comes from. Usually they plough up and down , results in instant topsoil loss first time it rains, then washing all those fertilizers down into the drains.

      @@coolruler8856 hmm perhaps but there are many factors that go into our current day health problems obviously the #1 thing people think about is is pesticides in our food and frozen junk food but there is also the fact that there are so many diseases in circulation because our population is so large think about it no one in a midievil population would commonly have heart attacks because they ate natural food for 1 but they also didn't have the genes because those people who had heart attacks were less likely to produce children so now that we have medicine we are stopping natural selection which is rather unfortunate but necessary also have you ever considered the insane amount of diseases we have in circulation just by our daily interactions our body is so immune to more diseases than our ancestors have ever dealt with there was a story of a man and his wife who moved to a rural area in Russia 200 miles away from civilization for like 60 years when they found him he had three children when the people from Russia made contact all 4 of them the dad and the three kids died within 4 years the only survivor was the wife that is a 80% fatality rate that's unbelievable

      I feel your frustration man the world could seem cold sometimes , but I believe in a God that’s loves us more than anything else . He has an answer to all that ails this world & is the compass that keeps us on course , but has been overdone by people as bad examples so people don’t see it as a need in their life . Contentment comes from God & it anchors our life . We don’t need everything that we’re told that we need . We are trained to think a certain way everywhere we go , by ads on the street & on tv . Sometimes I get frustrated too but I start doing what I can to be the be the change I want to see . I didn’t say this to be preaching , on the other hand , answers are hard to find . Good talking to ya & I hope that you keep questioning the norms like I do .

It’s a tough sell because like me , people go to the defaulted way of doing things , the big box stores .This year my lawn & garden will see new life & I’m confident that by my results curious minds will ask questions .

    Starting a rise bed garden for Spring 2020 My friend told me that I can have some of his cow manure. So I will be picking that up this week. I finally got all of the rise beds for my rise bed garden last week and yesterday I dig about a 6-10 inch trench in the bottom of 3 of the 7 beds. I'm hoping to assemble the rise this week and filled the trenches with tree branches. next I'm going to add some wood chips. The 3rd layer will be cow manure. I have to put this layer under the soil so as not to stink up the neighborhood being that I live in the city. The 4th layer will be a mix of my clay soil and compost that we get free from our local compost center plus I have been purchasing some bags of Black Kow and other bags of everything under the sun. I am going to add some sand as I plan on putting a worm tower in each of the beds and they need the sand for their digesting system to produce good worm casting. Then the icing on the cake will be my rabbit manure and straw to cover the bed for the winter. I'm hoping this plan works and this coming spring 2020 I can have a good crop

    Where did she get this 1986 date? Back in the 50s, Louis Bromfield was talking about the untold numbers of beneficial bacteria, fungi, etc in the soil and asked a professor if the professor knew of anyone who could list all the beneficial microbes in a cubic foot of truly fertile soil. The professor said it was unlikely anyone could describe all the beneficial organisms in a cubic inch of such soil.

      Anywhere there are already plants growing. Almost all soil contains the necessary nutrients and minerals for a plant to flourish. What soil is often missing is the microbiology that brings those nutrients and minerals to the plant. A plant can't use the nutrients and minerals in the soil by themselves - they're not presented in a form that the plant can "uptake". Instead, by using exudates that the plant produces, it attracts the bacteria and fungi that can process those nutrients and minerals in the soil and present them in a form that the plant CAN uptake.
      (Dirt is the combination of clay, sand, silt, organic matter and moisture.
      Soil is the combination of clay, sand, silt, organic matter, moisture AND microbiology).
      Nothing will grow where there isn't an established community of microbiology in the soil. If your soil is lacking microbiology, the easiest way to add them is by adding organic matter. Compost - or anything that you would compost - or well aerated compost tea. Soft material like kitchen waste, garden waste, leaves, grass and manure attract bacteria while woody material like logs, sticks and twigs attract mycelium. Both are necessary for healthy plants and soil.

    ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡what happens when the soil suffersof a large period of drought that even the stationay plants die?? Do all the organism that mention Elain die too? Do we lose soi lfertility with droughts?
    I am from mexico, from a region where the arable soil is too thin, like 40 or 50 cm, deeper we find a layer of what it seems limestone or somethin like that, so every year we have a rainy season of 2 months and a larger period of drougth, thats why my previous questions?
    What we could do??, we are so affected, if it rains too much little plants die due to waterlogging, if rains too less plants get stressed very soon. It is too difficult to us but we do not lose hope and avery year we plant anyway

      You need to control the water on your property with "swales" and "containment ponds". (based on P.A. Yeomans' "Water for Every Farm")
      Collect the water in the rainy season to use during a drought. Swales are ditches that collect excess water during the rainy season, slow the water down and allow it to sink into the soil. When there is too much water, the swales fill up and overflow into another swale or containment pond. Collect as much water as you can at the highest point on your property and let gravity disperse that water to where it is needed.
      If your seedlings/plants are getting waterlogged, dig ditches around your garden so the water drains off of the plants but stays "near" the plants so they still have access to the needed moisture.
      If your seedlings/plants are suffering in a drought, use "ollas" - unglazed terra cotta pots that are dug into the ground and slowly release water near the roots of the plants. ( permaculturenews.org/2010/09/16/ollas-unglazed-clay-pots-for-garden-irrigation/ )

      The Bible does not induce psychosis in the thinking mind, it stimulates thought by offering the wisdom of the ages to apply to the issues of one's own day. It also instructs us to not waste time in thoughtless debate with those unwilling to perceive the truths it holds. As to the flat earth theory, the Bible actually speaks of "the circle of the earth", so it was way ahead of Copernicus in that matter.
