David Montgomery & Anne Biklé. It's a tangled relationship - soil, nature, and people. The saga continues in our latest book, What Your Food Ate.

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

News Flash—what's good for the land is good for us too! Read all about it in our new book, What Your Food Ate. How soil health ripples through the crops and animals of the human diet into our own bodies.

@DaleSoilH2O As we like to point out - without readers, there wouldn't be writers, so thank you!

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

@porchlightbooks @wwnorton Awww, thank you! Yep a whole month since What Your Food Ate hit the streets.

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

No food, no microbes. This is why living roots in the soil all the time are so important. Think about it - what if you got to eat only on Thursdays and went without in between.

[Matt Wallenstein @mwallenstein]

People are often surpised to learn how slow soil microbes grow because we only see how quickly they can grow on rotting food or petri dishes.

Great to see this elegant study quantify this!

Even healthy soils are a food and water desert at the microbial scale.

Fungi do lots and lots beneath our feet.

Excited to have the cover story in @sciencemagazine this week - or perhaps I should say, to partner with fungi on the cover. Fungi partner with nearly all of Earth's land plants to forge ecosystems that we depend on, but scientists are only beginning to understand...

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

@frantecol Another little discussed aspect of the yield trap is the issue of food waste. "In the United States, food waste is estimated at between 30-40 percent of the food supply." If yield is the guiding light why throw away so much of it?

Nice to hear about @BugLundgren - like the definition offered for regenerative ag, it’s spot on https://t.co/3xYjSGDsn8

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

Looks like this will be a great talk on what's goin' down underground.

[Dave&Anne @Dig2Grow]

Pretty good - all that necromass for sure - but needs exudates added.

[Canadian Society of Soil Science @CSSS_Soils]

Soil organic matter is a complex mixture of #plant, animal, or microbial-derived residues at various stages of decomposition. Plants and #microbial communities are usually the biggest contributors to #soil organic matter. Learn more here: https://t.co/GXwGDvEqne

[van der Heijden Lab @vandeHeijdenLab]

Unseen and hidden effects of pesticides: pesticide suppress natural soil fertilizers.

Our new study in @NaturePortfolio demonstrates that pesticides suppress the natural nutrient uptake capacity of beneficial mycorrhizal fungi with 42%.

@DanBarber There's still no free lunch out there...only nature and those of us steeped in the reality that sun, water, and real plants, animals, and food make us and the planet what we are.

[Dan Barber @DanBarber]

First they want to get rid of farms and grow everything inside, then get rid of farmers by investing in robots. Now they're figured out how to grow food with no sun. https://t.co/k40tISK446
