Compost ISN'T the BEST way to Build Healthy Soil (Science Explained)

In this video, we explain the two reasons why making compost isn't the miracle solution for improving soil and how to use an easier and cheaper technique. Watch next how to reduce other chores in your organic vegetable garden -    • Weeds Improve Soil | Using them is Eco-log...   If you're new to our channel – Hi, I'm Dr. Wendy Seabrook, the founder and project manager of https://www.learningfromnature.com.au. ‪@LearningfromNature‬ is a social enterprise. We help gardeners and farmers grow nutritious food relying on Nature's free ecological services instead of expensive fertilisers, pest controls and other inputs. They create resilient growing conditions better able to battle floods, drought and other extreme weather. Wendy is a PhD ecologist with a diploma in Permaculture. She teaches highly specialised eco-logical approaches to growing food supporting farmers and food gardeners internationally over the last thirty years. Her journey isn't confined to theory and scientific papers; it involves getting her hands dirty and gaining practical skills. Through these experiences, she realised that many established organic and regenerative practices could be greatly improved and shows us how here - ▶ Gardeners - https://www.learningfromnature.com.au... ▶ Farmers - https://www.learningfromnature.com.au...
