Salem Soil Solutions is a certified Soil Food Web Laboratory. Using microscopy, we identify and measure the biology in your soil, compost, extracts and teas.
Benefits of a complete soil food web
Plant Health
Aerobic biology in the rhizosphere protect plants from pests and disease.
Nutrient Cycling
Predator prey relationships within the soil food web release plant available nutrients.
Soil Structure
Soil biology binds loose sand, silts and clays, creating an aerobic “soil sponge” that stores water, and sequesters carbon.
Weed Suppression
The proper fungal and bacterial communities promote the plants you want to grow and suppresses the ones you don’t.
"Our soil teams with a multitude of organisms which provide the necessary work for healthy plants to grow free from disease, pests, and infertility." - Dr. Elaine Ingham
