But yet productivity keeps climbing "Productivity" (=yields?) may be increasing but what is happening to soil organic matter levels???? Hydroponics can be productive also. I believe the true measure of how "regenerative" we are or are not is reflected in soil organic matter levels. There is a rest stop on I-80 west of Des Moines which has a display which shows western Iowa top soil levels from the time the prairie was broken until now. Very informative (hint: it is not increasing) |
