The philosophy of organic fer
tilizer is one of restoration: restor
ing the nutrients that are vital to
good, healthy plant growth, which
will eventually feed humans.
“Organic matter may be said to
be the constitution of the soil,”
explained Dr. William A.
Albrecht, lifetime agronomist at
the Missouri College of Agricul
ture. "The organic matter in the
soil has been the capacity for our
soils and our crops to survive in
spite of the ‘soil doctors,’ rather
than because of them.
“Organic matter is still the most
reliable fertilizer in terms of the
nutrient ratios and of the time
when maximums must be deliv
ered,” he added.
Farmers can depend upon the
natural processes to release the
needed plant foods at the proper
time only if they supply the natural
ingredients to build the soils and to
feed the microbial life in the soil. It
