Humusica 2, article 17: Techno humus systems and global change – Three crucial questions

Some soil scientists or biologists (14, one preferring anonymity) answered the three following questions:1. Introduction)2. Why is organic food better (e.g. tastes better, is healthier, richer in nutrients, contains less pesticide) than food produced with hydroponic or intensive farming techniques?3. In a humipedon, are soil functioning, biodiversity and carbon content three interdependent and intersected aspects of a single ecosystem? In other words, can we treat these aspects as if they were inseparable in a humipedon?4. Are agriculture and civilization (society, culture, way of life) interconnected?All scientists expressed affirmative answers. Nuances or in depth information were also furnished. The article allows understanding the real “agronomic challenge” that predicted global change might represent for humanity
