Hi! Glyphosate and AMPA residues is a very interesting issue since many regenerative properties are started in a field that was on conventional agriculture; important item to verify in a soil test before buying a farm. Also the livestock/crop rotation could even be made in a vegetarian way by raising wool sheep.
Molasses increases bacterial populations. Mycorrhizal grow as do other soil biology to eat the bacteria. Bacteria digest minerals. Protozoa and Nematodes eat the bacteria and release its nutrients. This results in chelated minerals in the form of amino acids which are good for plants. Earthworms do the same. They eat minerals and cast off amino acid chelated minerals. The plant exudates sugar near its roots to attract bacteria who are eaten by higher soil biology. The nematodes cast off are great for the plant.
I make my own enzymes that have indeed KNOCKED OUT BOTH GLYSO AND PICLARAM in a single season and seed/weed banks . My problem is having a plant diversity after application as I have a gov based sod buster that cant get it yet and wont plant seeds.
Also loss of those large amounts of migrating birds and native that would contribute their manures into the fields bringing larger ranges of bacterial biology .It's synergistic same with all those insect carcases
This discussion is mostly about the problems with herbicides like Roundup. There is just a few minutes at the end of the talk where the topic of increasing soil health is discussed by using cattle on land. Very weak on practical solutions. Very strong on the dangers of toxic chemicals lasting years in the soil.

So glad I found this channel
thanks we nee d a lot more on this. Make a book and audiobook with ALL the information not techniques and inoculants so important.
You should include the presentation slides
Any testing done with Round Up and Molasses (55% sugar) or molasses being used to help "cleanup Round Up" or decompose corn stalks?

Hi AEA, was the second book that Dr. Kremer mentioned 'Mycorrhizal Planet' by Michael Phillips? I couldn't quite hear it. Thanks!
You're right, the second book mentioned is 'Mycorrhizal Planet' by Michael Phillips, found here: www.chelseagreen.com/product/mycorrhizal-planet/
Thanks! I'm loving these podcasts.
Also Check out Michael Phillips "Biodynamics Now!" podcast:

Why don’t you ever mention compost worms like red wringers
