The Missing Link for Soil Bio-Recreation©
EARTH REGENERATION AT ITS BEST
Dr. Layan Dawud Said, PhD – Soil Physicist & Integrator Scientist Welcome to the MicroSoil® BASED BIOSPHERE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
This treatise is intended as a guideline to solve the increasingly chronic problems of infertile soils, nutrient-deficient crops, pests, and diseases, resulting from a perceived panacea of inorganic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and guessing, all of which fail to deal with the real cause – a poorly nourished soil. 
This intends to offer knowledge and solutions, which, when properly implemented, will recreate the natural soil ecosystem, resulting in maximum productivity and profitability.
It has been said that we are sustained by water flowing from the mountains en route to the sea.
In its course, water runs over, under and around rocks, reducing them to sand, silt and microscopic particles of clay. Rocks are soils waiting to be born through the reactions with water, weather, microorganisms and chemistry.
The carbonic acid fraction of water provides the initial chemistry which releases (frees) minerals (cations and anions) to solution from the clay and organic matter to make minerals available for root uptake – the basis of plant nutrition.
Soil and topsoil are produced naturally at a rate of 1 mm in 200 – 400 years. A full soil profile develops in 2000 – 10,000 years.
World food supplies are at a crucial turning point, and more bad weather could
completely deplete supplies and cause a food crisis of catastrophic dimensions. We are at a critical point in history, for we face both a threat and an opportunity.
The opportunity exists in the critical analyses and understanding of the precise
mechanisms involved in the soil–plant-human matrix, which leads to more efficient
methods of productivity and increased profitability, while at the same time, preserving
and enhancing human health and the soil ecosystem and the environment at-large.
It is primarily the microbial interactions in soil that are responsible for the biological
control of plant disease, turnover of organic matter, and the release and recycling of
essential plant nutrients
UNDERSTANDING THE MICROBIAL CONNECTION
Due to phenomenal microbial proliferation, the soil is depleted of oxygen at numerous
microsites in the rhizosphere. Thus, oxygen-free anerobic microsites are formed.
Anerobic microsites play an important role in ensuring plant health and vigor.
Ethylene, a simple gaseous compound, is produced in these anerobic microsites.
Ethylene is a critical regulator of the activity of soil microorganisms, and as such, affects:
1. Turnover of soil organic matter (O.M.)
2. Recycling of plant nutrients.
3. Incidence of soil-borne diseases.
Ethylene temporarily inactivates the soil microbes resulting in less demand for oxygen.
Oxygen diffuses back into microsites, reducing ethylene production. When
concentrations of ethylene in the soil fall, microbial activity recommences. Favorable
conditions are then recreated for ethylene production and the cycle goes on.
Some of the more important functions of ethylene are as follows:
1. Induces seed germination
2. Induces root-hair growth – increasing efficiency of water and mineral absorption
3. Provides for disease/wounding resistance
4. Enhances fruit ripening
