The Soil Food Web School’s mission is to empower individuals and organizations to regenerate the soils in their communities. The Soil Food Web Approach can dramatically accelerate soil regeneration projects by focussing on the soil biome. This can boost the productivity of farms, provide super-nutritious foods, protect and purify waterways, and reduce the effects of Climate Change. No background in farming or biology is required for our Foundation Courses. Classes are online & self-paced, and students are supported by highly-trained Soil Food Web School mentors.
Over the last four decades, Dr. Elaine Ingham has advanced our knowledge of the Soil Food Web. An internationally-recognized leader in soil microbiology, Dr. Ingham has collaborated with other scientists and with farmers around the world to further our understanding of how soil organisms work together and with plants. Dr. Ingham is an author of the USDA's Soil Biology Primer and a founder of the Soil Food Web School.

You guys are a fantastic resource and I'm grateful you're putting this up for the record. It will benefit many people at no cost. Hats off to you!
I’ve been following Dan’s spectrometer development for sometime now. Great idea and tool.
Thank you for the video Dan lots of great information especially the mulching system because we are talking about a large area to provide for.
This is awesome! Thank you! I'm interested in the wave of soil/crop spectrometers to help progression of food security!!
What a fantastic presentation. Amazing work. Truly inspiring. Thank you
Thanks for the description of why rock dust can be helpful. I’m considering adding it to my compost as a way to integrate it.
Thank you. Be great to see the two Carrots on a physically scale. Showing nutrient value. In the effort to more simplify the explanation. As we know. Our public need super simple statements, pic’s and charts. Any ideas.
Thank you Dan, this was really informative.
Fabulous lecture, really appreciated the information.
Thanks Dan!
Good morning, from Caxias do Sul Brasil

How do you control septoria leaf spot in tomatoes using mineral nutrients
Great question. Please feel free to send us this question: info@soilfoodweb.com
Not for nothing, I lost 50+ lbs years ago in 6 months on an all natural/organic diet. Nothing brand specific. Just looked at ingredients not "calorie charts" haha
you'd be surprised at how bad "healthy" food can be when you start to switch your focus from "calorie counts" to ingredients lists.
Suddenly the weight watchers bar with 20-30 ingredients and 100 calories seems strange compared to a banana with the same amount of calories and one ingredient 🤣
Love the Dan K
We love Dan and the work the Bionutrient Association does too!
👍🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
WHOA!!! I'D LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THAT "SPECTRMETER"!!...(at ~36:50...)
@guloguloguy Please feel free to send your questions to info@soilfoodweb.com
I would like an instrument to measure sap as a hand held unit
Dan - you are crititcal to our future. Keep fighting, help is on the way!
plants were meant through eat through symbiotic relation with its microbes not through fertilizers. So were we. like Dr. Lustig says let cows fix the nitrogen not spraying it or using fossil fuels like Dr. Shiva always mentions. Just like we always lived without any pollution.
I somewhere know inside that I will be truly learning a lot from you guys as time reveals in future. A purposeful life will be my way of doing karma yoga. When we find purpose n meaning to action, we do it not for personal gain as much as to serve. What can be a better service than helping those who are feeding us and serving the mother earth. 🙏🙏 thank you for all you are doing
Tidal force on water table is something I never considered I leave about 4 miles from open water if Gulf of Mexico but it’s Edge of swamps I wonder if effect the salt water “wedge “in the ground water I understand spelt water heavier it goe me under the fresh water
Will Himalayan salt perhaps diluted in water act as a Beni fit or sterilization on soil as Elaine says about salts on the earth??
Feel free to reach out to us at info@soilfoodweb.com with your questions
.....ALTHOUGH THIS IS GREAT INFORMATION!!,... UM I, UM WOULD, UM RECOMMED, UM NOT, SAYING "UM"....
🙂
Never knew cobalt atom was the center of b 12 wow
How pretty and smart Dr. G is, huh?
Sad you say plants evolved. It would be more accurate to say some believe plants evolved, others believe they were designed. Plants carry all the the hallmarks of design to my mind, the golden angle in seed heads etc. you say plants evolved. That’s a statement. Can you explain how this process of undirected blind chance ( evolution ), worked in bringing about plants.
I do agree about soil health though.
I mostly agree with your comment except that evolution is not undirected blind chance, one's DNA changes through their life in a process called epigenetics. That's how offspring are better adapted to the environments their parents lived in. God didn't create everything as it exists in its current form, God created systems that foster adaptation and growth and have allowed the world to become this beautiful complex place. I think that is even more beautiful
Plants are constantly evolving. Look up bacterial evolution - occurs very rapidly. Bacteria exist in the microbiomes of plants, and of course the soil food web. If you don't believe "plants" evolved, know that the integral bacteria in plants is evolving, as is all life surrounding the plant. Fossil records of plant evolution and pollen over millions of years is fascinating and beautiful. Open your mind to the beauty of the universe - just as *God*(s) intended
Bro.. design = the procces of trillions and trillions of biochemistry darts being thrown at a target called life and seeing what sticks and then then deciding to use the ones that stick to start over and play the game again after growing and multiply ing a bit to get more trillions of biochemistry darts. Nothing wrong with the sense of awe of being a small speck in the universe amidst all this, it’s the assuming it’s from some purposeful intelligent top down god versus an emergent organization of life made possible by the influx of energy
