Carbon is the Keystone Species
In all soils, at least those used to support life, carbon is the most critical factor. Carbon drives the ability of soils of all kinds to capture and hold water. Carbon plays just as critical a role in nutrient capture, containment, and release. These two things together drive all potential farm and ranch profit on longer time horizons.

Yes.
Farmer Billy wants us all to contribute to carbonizing the soil. And I agree. He'll amount to the small plot I've set aside for sweet potatoes. Because I hate them. Not really. But that crop, I will hate.
If youβre referring to bill gates that person has no idea what heβs talking about. He comes at carbon as an ESG talking point, probably because his owners told him to. Heβs pretty dangerous to the future of farming.
