It’s been widely studied. The link between the health of the soil and the resulting nutritional value of whatever grows from that soil.
It has to do with soil as an ecosystem that needs biodiversity. Monoculture and fertilizers and most industrial farming practices significantly reduce the quality of the soil by “killing off” many of the crucial components of the soil ecosystem (many microorganisms for example).
Does that make sense?
I’d like to see a study comparing nutrient density over time or something similar. You can look up nutrient content in vegetables, and that’s also been studied and verified.
Yeah. In this day and age there’s a study for almost anything.
I believe it because it makes complete sense to me and because I’ve studied permaculture and many of my friends have permaculture projects. I have personal experience with eating veggies that come from very healthy soil and I can immediately feel the difference in my body. From taste to resulting energy to feeling satiated to better digestion.
The direction you should study is glyphosate and its effect on soil biodiversity.
