Living Soil: A Documentary

by Microstart Farming

Our soils support 95 percent of all food production, and by 2060, our soils will be asked to give us as much food as we have consumed in the last 500 years.

They filter our water. They are one of our most cost-effective reservoirs for sequestering carbon. They are our foundation for biodiversity. And they are vibrantly alive, teeming with 10,000 pounds of biological life in every acre.

Yet in the last 150 years, we’ve lost half of the basic building block that makes soil productive. The societal and environmental costs of soil loss and degradation in the United States alone are now estimated to be as high as $85 billion every single year.

Like any relationship, our living soil needs our tenderness. It’s time we changed everything we thought we knew about soil. Let’s make this the century of living soil.

Is Your Soil Living Up To Its Potential?

Maybe you've read all the biological farming books and you're trying to piece together the perfect biological protocol yourself...

Or maybe you're sick of adding synthetic inputs year after year... only to watch your soil get worse while costs keep climbing.

Either way, you know something's not adding up.

And deep down, you know your soil has way more potential than what you're getting out of it right now.

Here's what we've figured out:

The missing piece isn't another input or another theory from a book.

It's getting the right biology back into your soil.

Our Liquid Microbe Agriculture Mix - developed alongside soil biologist Dr Mary Cole from Agpath Australia - replaces the exact biology that's missing from your soil in order for it to be the healthiest and most productive it can be.

No guesswork. No generic formulas.

Each mix gets tailored to your soil type, your pasture or crop conditions and your specific farming practices.

Because the biology that works on red clay in Queensland isn't the same as what's needed on sandy loam in South Australia.

The approach is straightforward:

Using our 25+ years of biolgical farming experience, we restore the soil biology that drives plant health and productivity without reliance on synthetics.

In other words, we "reactivate" the processes that would happen naturally before they were disrupted.

Available in 1000L quantities. We freight across Australia.
