Thanks Mark, fascinating, I have to admit I do find it a bit complicated to wrap my head around the Eh-pH thing but in my view it really does confirm that the principles behind regenerative agriculture are absolutely underpinned by science. For me the key points to note from your article is more about what we do with that science – and that is…
