Ep 2 - Compacted soils are chocking your potential

  • サマリー

  • Healthy soil isn’t just dirt—it’s a living, breathing system that relies on air pockets, bacteria, and delicate chemical balances to function properly. In this episode of Where Inches Matter, Allan Piercy breaks down the unseen physics behind soil structure in simple terms, explaining why good soil should be like a well-built card house, full of space for oxygen, water, and thriving microbes.

    Allan explores how fertilisers and agrochemicals—many of which are salts—can disrupt this natural balance, causing soil particles to collapse and limiting the availability of essential nutrients. He also demystifies electrical conductivity (EC), a crucial but often overlooked measure of soil health. Using relatable analogies, he explains how EC determines plant growth, why spring brings a natural nutrient boost, and how compacted soils struggle to support crops without costly inputs.

    If you’ve ever wondered why some soils naturally sustain plant growth while others require constant fertilisation, this episode will give you the answers. Tune in to learn how to restore your soil’s natural ability to support healthy pastures and crops—without breaking the bank.
