A fellow Grazier in our local grazing group got his soil tested and he put on exactly the recommendations of amendments and after several years had his soil totally messed up. It really brought home to me why microbial soil health is the number 1 priority.

We don't know yet how many other unidentified, unmeasureable nutrients exist. That is the problem with following science only.

Dr. Montgomery is a national treasure. He is as much historian as geologist (which are very much the same thing!)

I had a small dairy a few years back and made it a point to taste each cows milk and each cows milk tasted different. I got to the point where I could taste the A2A2 protein. If the cow wasn't A2A2 her milk had an acidic taste to it.

Listening to this, and really thinking about the problem of soil degradation, it seems to me that any overuse of land will have a degrading effect. Even with techniques and tricks, the bottom line is that we have a huge population and therefore demand, a lot, from a finite set of arable spaces. The mulches and composts that we need for a given parcel have to come from somewhere else, and - for me - the real issue is overpopulation and overoccupation of lands. Also, there's the issue of permanent ownership and repeated use of given parcels. Because we're so overpopulated, and because the vast majority of humanity is almost psychopathically indifferent to the need for land to be left alone, I really can't get to the optimism Montgomery expresses. I think, sometimes, in the face of really grave issues, optimism can be seriously inappropriate. But, at this point, we are so disconnected from the damage we've caused, and our population is so far in excess of a realistic carrying capacity, that I almost can't take anything seriously that doesn't gravely address the very danger inherent in our collective footprint (regardless of techniques that might help us postpone having to confront the issue). I think we reached the stage of being, literally, a cancer on this planet a long time ago, and the only test of our humanity, now, is how soon we can face it. If we can't, I reserve the right to see that as a form of psychopathy or gross denial, and for now I don't see any cause for anything remotely approaching an attitude of optimism.

Can't wait for the book to come out! Does it include evidence that pasture raised eggs with orange yolks are more nutritious? Are medicinal lab mushrooms as potent or nutritious as old growth forest mushrooms?

Around here in s. Michigan farmers are beginning to use cover crops but then they spray them off with roundup in the spring before planting so it's adding yet another round of spray. My question is are the cover crops helping or in a way hurting?

Insane! Can't they just use winter kill cover crops, which will die with frosts/snow and then just decompose over the winter?
