Abstract
Goals Welcome to your farm! Leads to healthier, more resilient plants Replenishes soil with natural nutrients Prevents soil erosion Eliminates food supplies for pests, thus eliminating the need for the use of pesticides Increases the amount of water in the soil Decreases soil erosion Lowered fuel and labor costs; increase in profit Builds soil structure and health Immediately supplies essential nutrients to the soil Lowers biodiversity Damages the natural makeup of the soil Runs off into surrounding ecosystems Prevents soil erosion Improves soil structure Ability to access nutrients that are deep in the soil and bring it up to the surface for other plants Helps preserve soil moisture
