Hugh Lovel is the author of “A Biodynamic Farm for Growing Wholesome Food” and “Quantum Agriculture: Biodynamics and Beyond”. His articles appear in Acres USA and related organic farming periodicals such as Acres Australia and biodynamic journals around the world. Hugh is a farmer and an international consultant to dairy farms, graziers, broad-acre grain growers, and fruit and vegetable producers. As a multidisciplinary scientist, he has introduced comprehensive soil testing using both the Albrecht approach and a total acid digest test that more clearly reveals what is actually present in soils. Above all Hugh has been a leading pioneer of the new science of quantum agriculture. Quantum agriculture is a four-fold farming system first developed by Hugh Lovel in 1986 as a research project for Union Agricultural Institute in Blairsville, Georgia. This system is being used by thousands of farmers around the globe.
Learn how agriculture works in harmony with nature and how to improve yields, reduce cultivation, eliminate weeds, pests, and diseases and improve crop responses to weather while harvesting both carbon dioxide and nitrogen from the atmosphere and building these into the humus in our soils. In part 10, Hugh shares his expertise as he examines a soil test from one of the greenhouses at the farm and discusses it with Pat and John.
Manganese is required before photosynthesis can begin. It is used for hydrolysis to split H2O into H and OH. By the way, glyphosate from Roundup binds with manganese making it unavailable for photosynthesis. Advancing Eco Agriculture uses Sap analysis to see what a
plant is currently deficient of. Doing a foliar spray can triple photosynthectic activity.
