Скачать или смотреть Breaking Down Crop Residue | Soil Biology & Decomposition Strategies with David Olson

In this episode of Soil Talk with Elevate Ag, host Jim Ristau sits down with David Olson, owner of Sustainable Growing Solutions, to explore practical and science-backed strategies for managing fall crop residue.

David shares how his biological product, MetaGrow Decomposer, Elevate Ag’s HyprCycle+, and other soil health tools can accelerate residue decomposition while improving soil structure, nutrient cycling, and spring crop vigor.

Topics covered include:
How biological decomposers like MetaGrow Decomposer work
The importance of microbial diversity and epigenetic activation
The role of fungi vs. bacteria in residue breakdown
Balancing carbon-to-nitrogen ratios for optimal microbial activity
Tank mix recommendations microbe-friendly food sources
Practical field strategies: residue crimping, incorporation, and timing
Soil health benefits, nutrient retention, and pest suppression

Key takeaway:
Residue decomposition isn’t just about cleanup — it’s the first step toward healthier soil, higher efficiency, and long-term regenerative success.
