Isn’t that adding more dead dirt to dead dirt, rather than cultivating soil? How does rock dust encourage soil bacteria and fungi that symbiotically trade minerals for sugars with the plants?
It might be low-tech, but it’s not really a regenerative approach.
- mjsweet 4y agoI am a worm farmer and soil amendments manufacturer. One of the most important ingredients that I feed my worms is blue metal and zeolite rock dust. Trace minerals including elements like boron and sulphur are important for cellular growth. The Australian continent where I am has extremely weathered soil, depleted of minerals. I hope to help put minerals and biology back into the soil.
