Chemical fertiliser disturb soil

For the last 60 years or so, farmers have been adding only 3 nutrional elements (fertilizers) to their soils: N, P and K (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium). These highly concentrated chemicals have destroyed most of the natural soil life that had been nurtured for thousands of years by the ‘old style’ farmers and their organic-based, lower-yield systems. These large quantities of these 3 elements have also disturbed the natural soil chemical equilibrium, which has negatively affected the soil’s physical properties, which in turn led to reduced soil biological diversity and population levels, reducing soil fertility year after year.
