Soil Carbon Secrets

Plants play a crucial role in the carbon cycle, capturing carbon dioxide and contributing to soil health through microbial activity. However, agricultural practices, particularly the use of the plow, have led to significant carbon loss from soils, jeopardizing future food security as the global population grows. There’s no technological fix for this issue, but by nurturing our soils with the help of plants and microbes, we can work towards sequestering more carbon underground.
