Soil carbon has declined significantly in many soils since they were cultivated for cropping – consequently these soils may be less able to supply nutrients to meet plant demand. The production of food affects the amount of carbon in the soil as harvesting plants removes carbon from the soil. High levels of organic carbon help to maintain agricultural production through its positive role in maintaining soil health, raising fertility, reducing erosion and encouraging soil biota. Soils with higher SOC levels are generally more fertile, more productive and easier to manage. Soil organic carbon is the basis of sustainable agriculture. Soil organic carbon is believed to play a crucial role for many soil functions and ecosystem services. All living things are carbon based Carbon atoms bond with other atoms to form chains such as proteins, fats and carbohydrates, which in turn provides other living things with nourishment. Amending soil with organic carbon not only facilitates healthier plant life, but it also drains well, prevents water pollution, is beneficial to useful microbes and insects and eliminates the need for using synthetic fertilizers, which are derived from fossil fuels. Carbon Maestro has high organic carbon content, which have been developed as a food source for plants and beneficial soil micro-organisms and to increase soil carbon levels.
