7 Keys for Activating the Carbon Sequestration Switch

Key 1 – Balance the Soil

Create a thriving Soil Food Web by removing toxins, remediating salts, and balancing nutrients. MycorrPlus-A and O make it simple.

Key 2 – Avoid Overgrazing

Prevent overgrazing to protect deep roots. Rotational grazing maintains a robust root system and promotes fungal dominance, essential for carbon sequestration.

Key 3 – Diversify Crops

Use crop rotation and cover crops to boost microbial diversity and deepen roots, enhancing nutrient uptake and soil structure.

Key 4 – Reduce Chemical Inputs

Minimize herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides that damage soil biology. MycorrPlus helps break down these chemicals while replenishing nutrients.

Key 5 – Minimize Tillage

Limit tillage to protect beneficial mycorrhizal networks. No-till practices preserve the soil structure necessary for carbon sequestration.

Key 6 – Keep Ground Covered

Maintain plant or mulch cover to conserve moisture, prevent erosion, and support microbial life.

Key 7 – Use MycorrPlus

MycorrPlus-A and O are the secret to success—they detoxify the soil, balance pH and nutrients, boost beneficial microbes, and create extensive mycorrhizal networks. Learn more about the 7 keys for developing wonderful soil and carbon sequestration practices from the USDA NRCS.
