Agriculture is Facing a Crisis

Farmers and Ranchers around the world are facing huge challenges like…

Nutrient Deficiency Soil fertility is a major problem around the world. This results in lower yields and produce that is nutrient deficient.
Compaction Layers of compacted earth result in soil erosion, making it difficult for plant roots to penetrate deep into the soil profile.
Pests & Diseases It can feel like it’s a never ending battle fighting against all the different critters out there that want to take your crops down.
Drought & Flooding As soil structure and organic matter content are degraded over time, the soil’s ability to infiltrate and hold water is compromised.
Low Crop Yields Many farmers are experiencing diminishing crop yields despite the fact that they are pouring on more and more chemical fertilizer year after year.
Cost of Inputs For many farmers, the costs of chemical inputs seem to rise every year, making it harder and harder to earn a living.

These critical issues, along with demand for ecologically produced foods, are motivating farmers, ranchers, and growers to switch to Regenerative Agriculture. With the Soil Food Web Approach, you can fast-track your soil regeneration program.

Introducing the Soil Food Web Approach

Rapidly Regenerate Your Soil
and Boost Your Profits

The Benefits of the Soil Food Web

It’s the soil microbial community, AKA the Soil Food Web, that drives the system.
Your regeneration program will be dramatically accelerated once you balance the biology.
You’ll see the results you need in months instead of years!

Lower Input Costs
Lower Input Costs

Once you restore the natural balance to the soil biome, your yields will improve and you’ll no longer be dependent on expensive chemical inputs.

Improved Soil Fertility
Improved Soil Fertility

With beneficial biology in the soil, plants get to control their own nutrition by exchanging sugary exudates (produced by the plant during photosynthesis) for the nutrients they need, when they need them.

Increased Yields & Quality
Increased Yields & Quality

Improved nutrition, soil structure, and protection against pests and diseases are some of the ways in which plants are positively affected, resulting in increased yields.

Resilience to Drought and Flooding
Resilience to Drought and Flooding

Beneficial soil microbes build soil structure, which enables water to better infiltrate clay soils, while increasing the water holding capacity of sandy soils.

Inhibit Pests, Diseases & Weeds
Inhibit Pests, Diseases & Weeds

Well-nourished plants can better protect themselves against pests. Disease-causing organisms are out-competed, consumed and inhibited by beneficial organisms. Weeds are selected against.

Accelerated Soil Regeneration
Accelerated Soil Regeneration

It’s the biology in the soil that drives the system. By ensuring that the soil biome is in good shape, Farmers, Ranchers, and Growers can see results in months instead of years.

Case Studies

Whether you’re growing on a small scale or large, alfalfa or almonds, United States or United Emirates, the Soil Food Web Approach simply works. Watch these short case studies to hear more…

Included in the Consultant Kickstarter Bundle

The Soil Food Web Foundation Courses

Foundation Course 1: Introduction to the Soil Food Web

In Foundation Course 1 you will learn:

  •  About the damage that modern agriculture has done to soils all over the world.
  •  How Regenerative Agriculture is the soil-ution and how you can rapidly regenerate your soils with the Soil Food Web Approach.
  •  How the Soil Food Web Approach can be adopted on any scale and in almost any environment, with a multitude of crops.
  •  About the 4 major groups of Beneficial Microorganisms that are needed to restore ecosystem functions to your soil.
  •  How Beneficial Microbes work in harmony with your crops to nourish and protect them.

  •  About some of the management practices you can adopt to ensure that the biology in your soils is not compromised.
  •  How soil structure is created by beneficial microbes, improving water infiltration in clay soils and better water retention in sandy soils. And how good structure enables plants and beneficial microbes to penetrate deep into the soil profile, improving plant health.
  •  How beneficial microbes access the abundance of nutrients stored in the parent material (think sand and clay particles) and how this is then made available to your plants.
  •  How plants influence the soil biome, by releasing sugary exudates that feed specific groups of beneficial microbes, in return for nutrients.
  •  How having a balanced soil biome can result in great benefits, such as Weed Suppression and Increased Carbon or Organic Matter content.

Foundation Course 2: Making BioComplete™ Compost

In Foundation Course 2 you will learn:

  •  About the different definitions of compost and why we consider it as a means of multiplying beneficial microbes instead of just a way of delivering nutrients to the soil.
  •  How to make your own Biological Compost, using Dr. Elaine’s close-control composting method that enables beneficial microbes to multiply rapidly, while suppressing detrimental microbes.
  •  Techniques that can be used to balance the biology in your compost, ensuring that the 4 main groups of microbes are present.
  •  How to apply Biological Compost to your soils so that beneficial microbes can interact with your plants in the root zone, offering nutrition and protection.

Soil Sponge Regen Workshop

Didi Pershouse is the author of  The Ecology of Care: Medicine, Agriculture, Money, and the Quiet Power of Human and Microbial Communities and Understanding Soil Health and Watershed Function. She teaches participatory workshops both in person and online, helping to show the nested relationships between soil health, human health, water cycles, and climate resiliency.  She is the founder of the Land and Leadership Initiative and the Center for Sustainable Medicine, and a co-founder of the “Can we Rehydrate California?” Initiative. She is an independent trainer and curriculum developer for the UN-FAO Farmer Field School Program and the Andhra Pradesh Community Managed Natural Farming Initiative in India. She was one of five speakers at the United Nations-FAO World Soil Day in 2017.

Healthy soil is the fundamental infrastructure that makes life on land possible, but only when it is alive and functions like a sponge. A living “soil sponge” can soak up rain, store and filter water; and provide health, resilience, and thriving economies for the communities that grow from it.

Farmers and communities that create conditions for a soil sponge to grow experience interrelated benefits such as:

  • Healthier crops, animals, and people
  • Abundant clean water
  • Cooler regional temperatures
  • Reduction of wildfire risk
  • Resilience to flood and drought
  • Reduced erosion, dredging, and road repairs
  • Higher farm profitability
  • Prevention of algae blooms and dead zones
  • Cleaner air
  • Increased biodiversity
  • Reduced conflicts over resources
  • Improved local economies
  • Putting atmospheric carbon to work creating landscapes that support all of life.

Topics Covered:

  • Landscapes that Work for All of Life
  • Collaborating with the Essential Workforce of Other Species
  • Measuring Change for Long Term Success
  • Money, Life, and Land
  • Choosing Effective Intervention Points

Participants will gain:

  • a working knowledge of whole systems landscape function
  • an increased ability to evaluate land management decisions, practices, and policies
  • tools to create and lead soil health initiatives in your region
  • a community of practice: deep discussions with people working towards similar aims.

Participants will also have:

  • A clear picture of soil’s central role in addressing current economic, social, and environmental pressures.
  • A scientific understanding of the living matrix of the soil carbon sponge, and its relationship to carbon, water, and nutrient cycles.

What you’ll get with this workshop:

  • Interactive peer learning environment.
  • Network with other students/farmers in the group setting.
  • 5 weekly sessions each lasting 2.5 hours.
