At Douglas Ag, we define SOIL HEALTH as:
Soil conditions which have reduced populations of soil pests
Favor the proliferation of micro-organisms beneficial to crop health
Have optimal soil chemical and physical characteristics

We know that some soil microorganisms, such as pests injure plant health, while others, such as beneficials promote root health. The problem is that high populations of plant pathogenic organisms are found in many agricultural soils.
Our growers come to us with “tired soils,” “replant syndrome,” and poor crop health resulting from poor soil health.

To promote the most beneficial soil environment for our growers to produce healthy, bountiful crops that feed the world.
