    What chance is there that heavy rain will spread the contaminated soil and make a larger area useless for crops? Thanks for showing.

      Hi Stephen, UV light breaks down the chemical, so anything on the surface will no longer be active. It is possible that the chemical will leach further down into the soil. At this point most of the chemical will have broken down so it is more about getting the soil microbes back.
      Thanks from Geoffrey

    Might have to ask the cows to put extra manure just there.

      Hi Paper, yes we will start feeding the cows in this spot this summer. That will help it a lot.
      Thanks from Geoffrey

    Is there anyway to encourage the microbes quicker than what you've been doing?

      Dig it out, move it elsewhere... bring in good soil from.... elsewhere.... Take a dump or three, pee on it, fertilize it? Use cow/chicken crap 'fertilizers'. Ask people who use aerobic septic for the water produced? A fair few options. The bloke who did the video knows what he is talking about though. I'm just someone with a keyboard :) Never a farmer

      Hi Fi, we will start feeding the cows here this summer. The extra multichannel and animal manure will make a big difference.
      Thanks from Geoffrey
