The Soil Food Web Approach can dramatically accelerate soil regeneration projects by focussing on the soil biome. This can boost the productivity of farms, provide super-nutritious foods, protect and purify waterways, and reduce the effects of Climate Change. No background in farming or biology is required for our Foundation Courses. Classes are online & self-paced, and students are supported by highly-trained Soil Food Web School mentors. Over the last four decades, Dr. Elaine Ingham has advanced our knowledge of the Soil Food Web. An internationally-recognized leader in soil microbiology, Dr. Ingham has collaborated with other scientists and with farmers around the world to further our understanding of how soil organisms work together and with plants. Dr. Ingham is an author of the USDA's Soil Biology Primer and a founder of the Soil Food Web School. Dr. Thomas Dykstra has served the past 26 years as the Laboratory Director of his own lab, Dykstra Laboratories in Gainesville, Florida. Dr. Dykstra consults for farmers, agricultural companies, tech firms, attorneys, international governments, and insurance agencies and holds three degrees from Cornell University and the University of Florida. He instructs both farmers and agricultural consultants how to raise healthy crops for their families and for profit. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:43 Insects and Healthy Plants: A Scientific Overview 00:10:22 Insects' Role in Ecosystem 00:19:37 Refractometer Measurement for Plant Health 00:27:47 Digestive Systems and Nutrient Absorption 00:37:05 Photosynthesis, Plant Health, and Agricultural Practices 00:52:17 GMOs, Soybean Aphids, and Plant Health 01:06:23 Insect Attraction to Trees and Fruit 01:13:34 Plant Resistance, Insects, and Healthy Plants 01:15:42 Q&A Session #brix #plants #insects
