Cterra believes over-fertilization will not correct the lack of organic mass in depleted soils and plants will eventually lose much of their natural resistance to pests, parasites and diseases. Florida soils are a good example, they are often only composed of 2% organic matter, when it should be minimally 5%. Applying our composted and engineered soil blends we not only address that problem but also, simultaneously re-inoculate agricultural land with the correct Biome (soil based organisms) and our stacked micro-mineralization solutions. Without a minimally active Biome, plant nutrients and fertilizers will not be effectively be transported within a soil matrix to the roots, creating loss through run off instead making them expensive and less effective than compost and engineered soils.
