Soil Quality vs. Soil Health
Much like the success of the human body is measured by its health, soil health is a measure of a complex set of biological, chemical and physical interactions which are driven by microbial processes. The soil supports and sustains most life forms on earth, but it is the work of microorganisms that give soil its unique life giving properties.
