MicroBIOMETER Study to Indicate Soil Health. January 19, 2023 microBIOMETER Study Increasing the health of our soil is a top priority. After decades of chemical and pesticide usage, our soil is in poor shape. And since we depend on the soil to feed our world’s population, it is imperative that we change course. Due to this, universities and soil scientists around the world are studying the best ways in which we can increase the health of our soil.
One proven way to accomplish this goal is to protect and increase the microbes that live in our soil. Research studies show microbial biomass is the leading indicator of soil health. The microBIOMETER, a rapid, on-site soil test for microbial biomass and fungal to bacterial ratio, is leading the way in this important research. MicroBIOMETER® study performed in Ecuador showed microbial biomass correlated with crop health in all scenarios tested. The microBIOMETER reviews on its use in academic study environments have been extremely positive. PrevPreviousmicroBIOMETER Research.
