Reddit mentions of Mycorrhizal Planet: How Symbiotic Fungi Work with Roots to Support Plant Health and Build Soil Fertility

Is it? Hm, I never noticed. I mean: I do have a significant interest in the current state (and direction) of agriculture so it shouldn't be that much of a surprise. >shrug<

Pretty cool to share your rationale for why you subbed to this sub.

Have you read Mycorrhizal Planet by Michael Phillips yet? It was a nice late winter read for me; marked my copy up pretty good with notes for later reference.

I did Elaine Ingham's "Life in Soil Class" recently too; and while I didn't agree with her position on a couple of things, I found it to be very interesting and have some different approaches I'll be implementing on my acreage.

I've also done significant soil-biology testing this spring with A&L Canada (think: Solvita test on steroids), to develop a baseline for levels/populations of my soil life. I'm taking bi-weekly tests of the same type now that I've applied my glyphosate/atrazine/isoxaflutole so that I can see soil population response and recovery. It's going to be a pretty cool experiment. The same fields will be getting randomized cover crops (some that will over-winter and some that will not); and we'll see how my soil life (along with farm ROI) changes.

Thanks for showing an interest, too bad you banned me from /r/Organic; because we could have had some great discussions in that sub as well.

I recently bought this Book as I became quite interested in Mycorrhizae in general. Its a good read I'd recommend it.

Hello, Kimbal! Have you read this book: Mycorrhizal Planet: How Symbiotic Fungi Work with Roots to Support Plant Health and Build Soil Fertility https://www.amazon.com/dp/160358658X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_oKyLAb8VD8DXM
If yes, did it teach you anything useful for growing healthy food?
