As well, changes in temperature make it harder for plants to photosynthesize, so crop yields are dropping. Use an organic vegetable fertilizer to feed these plants, following the directions on the label. Reseed the soil when you’re ready for another crop. They can all increase a plant’s likelihood of disease.

There are still a lot of questions that science is working out—like how exactly the whole process works and what sort of impact different soil microbes have, but there does seem to be potential in carbon farming for helping mitigate climate change. More rocking cover crops—in 2014, this field only grew rye that reached my knee.

A review from earlier this year found that only a third of published studies in which researchers compared fields that were cover-cropped with those that weren’t reported significant gains in soil carbon. And a study published last month illustrated one major reason why farmers may be reluctant to plant cover crops.

Transitioning to such a system will require US agriculture to reduce its dependency on, and overapplication of, synthetic fertilizers. Over the next few years, UCS will be shining a light on the fertilizer industry and the impact it has on people and the environment. While a majority comes from Morocco, some is mined in Florida.
