I’m proud to introduce From the Ground Up, a book comprised of five years of essays, organized by topic or category, about leading-edge agricultural practices. Since 2016, Andaman Ag has been sharing research in twice a month newsletters to educate the agricultural industry about biological and sustainable farming practices. It was important to present the information in a pithy format that people would take the time to read and share. Over the years, we’ve received praise for the newsletters from growers and non-growers alike. The agricultural market continues to go through a considerable amount of necessary change incorporating biological farming practices into current crop programs. These changes are delivering superior results. We hope this book can serve as a reference and guide for improving soil and crop health for commercial growers and home gardeners.

Silicon Fortified Plants

Despite its abundance—second only to oxygen in Earth’s crust—Silicon is still overlooked in many crop nutrition programs. It’s not yet classified as an “essential” nutrient for most plants, but this perspective needs to change or at least shift, given its extensive list of benefits for plants as one of Earth’s core elements.

The Variable Movement of Nutrients Through Plants

The life of a plant, much like that of any other organism, is intricately dependent on the intake and transport of essential nutrients. These nutrients, absorbed predominantly from the soil, are fundamental to the plant’s growth, development, and metabolic functions.

The Elements of Energy Conversion and Plant Growth

I wrote this newsletter back in late October 2019. It came up this week from one of our suppliers as he had just purchased my book. Thank you, Travis, my friend, as it’s worth repeating.

All plants require 17 elements to complete their life cycle. Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are obtained from the air and water. Plants derive the remaining 14 elements from the soil, which is often enriched with fertilizers and amendments. Plant growth and development largely depend on the combination and concentration of available mineral nutrients.
