Balancing a field's soil biology and chemistry decreases the need for chemicals because healthy, nutritionally balanced plants are more resistant to stress from drought, weeds, disease and insect attacks.
Keep Crops From Being Eaten Alive
The best way to protect your crops from being eaten alive by pests is to put them on a balanced diet. Insects and diseases are opportunists who find their hosts by "listening" for imbalance. A plant weakened by poor soil conditions puts out a frequency recognized by insects as food. An insect can't recognize the frequency of a healthy plant however, and will pass it up for an unhealthy one every time.
"If you balance the nutrition in the plant no insect in the world will attack that plant."
Feed The Soil So It Feeds The Plant
Farmers who use biological fertilizer amendments to feed the soil and "allow the soil to feed the plant" reduce the amount of herbicides and pesticides they apply over the years without losing yield. Yields commonly increase with balanced plant nutrition
