VIDEO: Solar Fertility Systems with Mark Dempsey & Pat Battle Part 4


Join Mark Dempsey and Pat Battle for this Carolina Farm Stewardship Association’s Sustainable Agriculture Conference session from the 2021 online conference about solar energy capture in plants and how sunshine can maximize fertility by feeding the microbial soil food web. Ramping up fertility with the sun and the soil food web can be done by working with a diversity of plants that act as soil regulators. Combining plants in ways that engage natural synergy improves nutrient access for all the plants and microbes from available resources.

  1. Thank you, wonderful information! Here there are many wild boar, and they were eating all my sweet peas, so I had to replant peas. I noticed the wild boar did not eat my onions. So I interplanted the peas with more onions. I harvested these sweet peas throughout the season, and when the peas were done the onions added size, and gave a nice harvest.

  2. I haven't had success with tomato & tumeric in a hothouse. Ginger in similar situation only produced enough to support one more generation of plant. Not enough surplus to eat.
