Symbiotic Relationships in Ecology with Dr. Don Huber

In this episode of the Regenerative Agriculture Podcast, John interviews Dr. Don Huber, a leading plant pathologist and Professor Emeritus at Purdue University. They discuss how to manage soil-borne diseases by managing crop rotations, and the management needed to grow 500 hundred bushels corn. Don shares intriguing observations on how soil-borne disease pathogen populations remain present in the soil constantly and are actually ‘beneficial’ saprophytic fungi until the right environment is present. Root diseases are a result of the soil environment, not a result of the presence or absence of the organism. Listen to learn more about soil ecology to improve results on your farm.

wonderful Podcast

Awesome to hear two great agronomists and scientists in a conversation.. another excellent podcast AEA!

Love these podcasts. I am just a suburban backyard gardener. Very informative. The sound is a bit tinny sounding.

It's amazing how much knowledge that we have put aside and now we are seeing the consequences. I love the education being provided here instead of an opinion from someone he doing the research. I learned alot from this podcast!

Wish you could have Dr. Don Huber on again

Interesting stuff. A crop that can keep its guarding and supporting soil ecology well fed, appears to stay healthy and reproductive in most cases. A crop’s nutritious root exudates and shading support mineral miners, construction crews, and other workers in a mutual soil ecology. Well supported guards keep adversaries, disrupters, interlopers, intruders, extremists, weirdos and encroachers in check. Systemic or temporary crop stress can throttle the flow of resources to the supporting soil ecology. When supply chains stay disrupted for some time, all kinds of unwanted effects can evolve. Effects may include loyal supporters in the soil switching sides, oversupply of some products, weakening structures, weird attempts to rebalance and so on. Interesting stuff.
