RESEARCH

The biological properties of compost are not fully appreciated or thoroughly understood.  Compost is known to contain naturally occurring fungicides and beneficial organisms that help suppress disease-causing organisms.  Compost has been shown to be beneficial by promoting the growth of Mychorrhizal fungi.  These fungi are essential for optimum root development and nutrient acquisition.  Mychorrhizal fungi are particularly important in establishing vegetative cover on disturbed soils or on soils that have been excessively sterilized to control disease-causing organisms, insects, weeds, and nematodes.  Noble Foundation research in Ardmore, Oklahoma indicates that colonization of Mychorrhizal fungi in the root mass is a crucial requirement for unlocking phosphorous bound in the soil and facilitating acquisition of P by the plant.  (Dr. Maria Harrison, Noble Foundation Soil Scientist, 1999)

   SOIL

What is Living Soil made of?

-   Minerals, air, water, and organic matter
-   Minerals break down to three distinct particle sizes, sand, silt, clay
-   Soil is dynamic - constantly changing
-   Soil is full of living microorganisms to keep it healthy
