For the Love of Soil: Strategies to Regenerate Our Food Production Systems

Learn a roadmap to healthy soil and revitalised food systems for powerfully address these times of challenge. This book equips producers with knowledge, skills and insights to regenerate ecosystem health and grow farm/ranch profits. Learn how to:- Triage soil health and act to fast-track soil and plant health-Build healthy resilient soil systems-Develop a deeper understanding of microbial and mineral synergies-Read what weeds and diseases are communicating about soil and plant health-Create healthy, productive and profitable landscapes.Globally recognised soil advocate and agroecologist Nicole Masters delivers the solution to rewind the clock on this increasingly critical soil crisis in her first book, For the Love of Soil. She argues we can no longer treat soil like dirt. Instead, we must take a soil-first approach to regenerate landscapes, restore natural cycles, and bring vitality back to ecosystems. This book translates the often complex and technical know-how of soil into more digestible terms through case studies from regenerative farmers, growers, and ranchers in Australasia and North America. Along with sharing key soil health principles and restoration tools, For the Love of Soil provides land managers with an action plan to kickstart their soil resourceâ€™s well-being, no matter the scale.â€œFor years many of us involved in regenerative agriculture have been touting the soil health - plant health - animal health â€“ human health connection but no one has tied them all together like Nicole does in â€œFor the love of Soilâ€! " Gabe Brown, Browns Ranch, Nourished by Nature. â€œWilliam Gibson once said that "the future is here - it is just not evenly distributed." "Nicole modestly claims that the information in the book is not new thinking, but her resynthesis of the lessons she has learned and refined in collaboration with regenerative land-managers is new, and it is powerful." Says Abe Collins, cofounder of LandStream and founder of Collins Grazing. "She lucidly shares lessons learned from the deep-topsoil futures she and her farming and ranching partners manage for and achieve.â€The case studies, science and examples presented a compelling testament to the global, rapidly growing soil health movement. â€œThese food producers are taking actions to imitate natural systems more closely,â€ says Masters. â€œ... they are rewarded with more efficient nutrient, carbon, and water cycles; improved plant and animal health, nutrient density, reduced stress, and ultimately, profitability.â€In spite of the challenges food producers face, Mastersâ€™ book shows even incredibly degraded landscapes can be regenerated through mimicking natural systems and focusing on the soil first. â€œOur global agricultural production systems are frequently at war with ecosystem health and Mother Nature,â€ notes Terry McCosker of Resource Consulting Services in Australia. â€œIn this book, Nicole is declaring peace with nature and provides us with the science and guidelines to join the regenerative agriculture movement while increasing profits.â€Buy this book today to take your farm or ranch to the next level!
