🌱🔝 When is the right time to begin building healthy soil? The right time is always now. Healthy soil — which is soil that has a high organic matter content, a balanced structure and high nutrient availability — provides an excellent basis for plants. It can decrease the amount of inputs that a grower needs to use, since many of the nutritional requirements of the crops will already be supplied through the soil. This increased nutrient availability can also help plants to develop stronger roots and become naturally more resistant to environmental stressors. Here are 4 tips to increase your soil health in a sustainable way ➡️ https://lnkd.in/d8RU5-qv . . #ACS #AlltechCropScience #SoilHealthExperts #agriculture #soilhealth #soil #sustainability

The importance of organic manure to crop nutrition and soil health cannot be over emphasised. Benefits of Organic manure 📍Improves soil structure 📍Increases water holding capacity 📍Enhances soil fertility 📍Enhances nutrient uptake 📍Improves crop yield and quality 📍Sustainable and environmentally friendly Organic manure is not readily available in commercial quantity for farmers to easily purchase when ever they need but every farmer can make his/her organic manure right in their backyard using kitchen waste and other organic matter. This post will try to break down the process of making compost in 7 simple steps. Please feel free to drop a comment in the comment section. #Smallholderfarmers #compost #pitcompost #agriculture #foodsecurity #sustainableagriculture

#Agriculture is constantly changing and so are its approaches, we invite you to get to acquainted with the 4R approach! The 4Rs philosophy is an innovative and science-based approach that offers improved environmental protection, increased production, increased farmers' profitability and sustainable production. This approach to agriculture is based on 4 parts: 🔸️ Right Source - providing #plants with all the #nutrients they need in forms they can easily absorb and taking into account the different macro and micronutrient requirements of different plant species; 🔸️ Right Time - Applying nutrients at the right time in the growth stages when plants can use them most efficiently. Adaptation of the #fertilisation schedule to the needs of the plants; 🔸️ Right Rate - Determining the optimum amount of nutrients to ensure optimal #growth and yield. Avoiding over- or under-nutrition. 🔸️ Right Place - Ensuring that nutrients are evenly distributed in the #soil or environment where plants are growing. Taking into account the individual soil requirements of different plant species The #4Rs of plant nutrition is a concept aimed at optimising the use of fertilisers and other resources, providing plants with everything they need for healthy growth, development and productivity! Did you know about this trend in the agricultural world? Share your opinion in the comments, share this post and leave your 💚!

Today is UN World Pulses Day. Celebrate the humble pulse! While there's plenty of speculation about technology-driven food system fixes like precision fermented proteins, legumes have always been there as a fantastic source of protein, fibre, carbohydrates and micronutrients. They're also a great rotation crop that boosts soil fertility and controls pathogens. So eat more beans, lentils and peas and support your own health as well as sustainable farming practices and the health of soils. Winner winner, beany dinner. #agroecology #WorldPulsesDay #sustainableagriculture

𝟓 𝐄𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 Soil health is at the core of organic farming. It’s not just about avoiding synthetic chemicals—it’s about enhancing the soil’s natural ability to sustain high-quality, nutrient-rich crops. Here’s how you can keep your soil thriving: 1️⃣ 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭 Organic matter is key. Compost and green manure improve soil structure, boost moisture retention, and encourage beneficial microbes. 2️⃣ 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐩 𝐑𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Prevent nutrient depletion and break pest cycles by rotating different crops. Your soil (and plants) will thank you. 3️⃣ 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐍𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧-𝐅𝐢𝐱𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐬 Legumes and other nitrogen-rich plants naturally replenish essential nutrients, reducing the need for external inputs. 4️⃣ 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐜𝐡 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥 Cover the soil to prevent erosion, lock in moisture, and keep weeds at bay. 5️⃣ 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 Regular soil tests tell you exactly what your crops need—address deficiencies with natural solutions. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭? Sustainable, fertile soil that supports healthy, productive crops for years to come. #OrganicFarming #SustainableAgriculture #Composting #CropRotation #NitrogenFixation #Mulching #WeedControl #SoilTesting #HealthySoil #SustainableFarming #SoilHealth #SoilScience Guidance for Soil fertility management 👇 👇👇 👇

Many of you ask us how our eco variety differs from the conventional variety, so we'll tell you the differences! 👐🏻 It contains no pesticide and herbicide residues so you are reducing exposure to chemical residues that may be present in conventionally grown fruit. Organic farming focuses on maintaining soil health, which can translate into more nutrient-rich food. In addition, the taste improves. 🍊 Want to know more about the benefits of importing our eco fruit?
