Description
Understanding the health of our food starts on the farm. David R. Montgomery and Anne Biklé explore the science behind how soil health affects crops, livestock, and ultimately our own well-being. They reveal how conventional agricultural practices can undermine these vital partnerships, leading to chronic diseases and climate change.
The authors argue that regenerative farming practices hold the key to healing sick soil and improving human health. By integrating information from various scientific fields, Montgomery and Biklé chart a path forward for farmers, eaters, and anyone concerned with reversing the modern epidemic of chronic diseases.
This book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand the interconnectedness of our food system and the natural world. By exploring the latest discoveries and epiphanies about the world beneath our feet, Montgomery and Biklé show us why what's good for the land is good for us, too.
