The Power of Plant Growth Promotion - Stimulating Yield, Quality and Resilience

The Power of Plant Growth Promotion - Stimulating Yield, Quality and Resilience

Author: Graeme Sait October 28, 2021 Duration: 1:35:56

Discover the fascinating world of biostimulants in this month's episode of the Nutrition Farming Podcast. Natural inputs that stimulate plant health, resilience and yield are becoming essential tools to help counter both the extremes of climate change and the challenge of rising fertiliser costs. Biostimulants can include both natural substances and specific microorganisms. In part 1 of what will be a 2-part feature, we take an in-depth look at kelp, and learn about five remarkable Bacillus organisms that are Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria (PGPB). The human health segment is entitled “The Death of Desire - In Search of Lost Libido”. Here, the focus is upon the critical importance of caring for your libido in terms of sexual health and wellness.


Graeme Sait has spent decades at the forefront of a quiet revolution in agriculture, and in the Nutrition Farming Podcast, he shares that journey in detail. This isn't just theory; it's a deep, practical conversation about how the health of our soil is inextricably linked to the vitality of our crops, the nutrition in our food, and ultimately, the well-being of our communities and planet. Each episode feels like a focused workshop, where Graeme translates complex soil biology and plant nutrition into actionable strategies that farmers and growers can use to improve resilience and profitability on their land. You'll hear a unique perspective that consistently connects the dots between microscopic soil life, intelligent mineral management, and broader ecological and human health outcomes. The discussions are grounded in real-world experience and the latest science, avoiding simplistic solutions in favor of a whole-system understanding. For anyone invested in the land-from producers and agronomists to gardeners and conscious eaters-this podcast provides an essential education in regenerative principles. Tune in for honest, nuanced talks that go far beyond conventional advice, offering a pathway to farming that truly nourishes.
