Wayne Volkl, co-owner of SWJ Consulting, says no-tillers need to focus on fungi, the most efficient piece of the biological puzzle, when building their soil biology.
The study, recently published in the journal Biology, investigated how bacteria in non-photosynthetic leaf cells of seed plants can naturally provide nitrogen to plants. Currently, inorganic nitrogen fertilizers, such as ammonia or nitrate, are commonly applied to soils, damaging soils, and causing nitrogen runoff that contaminates streams, rivers, and other water bodies.
