Atmospheric carbon levels catch a lot of attention. To find an evener larger carbon store, however, you must look below the soil surface. Relative to the atmosphere’s level of stored carbon, the soil contains carbon at levels roughly three times higher, according to the CarbonScapes resource . Even after summing carbon stored in plant matter with carbon contained in the …

In last week’s email, I explained the rhizosphere’s role in supporting plant health. To recap, the rhizosphere forms as beneficial bacteria colonize around the root system. Ultimately, it serves as a chemical and physical barrier to protect roots and assist with nutrient uptake and use. The rhizosphere itself shows the delicate balance among biological, chemical and physical crop production factors. …
