In this webinar, AEA founder John Kempf describes how stable humic substances are a result of fungal digestion, and will not form in soils that are too compacted. Lipids per acre are far more important than total biomass in determining humic substance production. Young, lush cover crops will only fertilize the next crop, while mature cover crops can build the soil because it does not have the nitrogen to carbon ratio that leads to mineralization instead of fungal digestion. To learn more about AEA product Rejuvenate and how it can encourage fungal digestion, visit www.advancingecoag.com/ or email info@advancingecoag.com.

Yes this is really true. The matured crop residues applied as a mulch on the soil along with a stimulate helps build Humus. In my farm the stimulate used is made from the local breed cows dung and urine.

When they show the cover crop being mowed down, they must have forgot about the extensive root left in the ground. I go more along keeping the living root in the ground. Plus leaving the root in the ground when you cut or kill the cover crop. \

Great! I use wood chips in the paths of my garden and always see masses of white as they decompose. However, I have been told not to put fresh wood chips in the soil. Wouldn't this be a way to increase humic substances? Tree companies are more than happy to get rid of the wood chips!

Wood chips are a very strong fungal food, which lead to fungal dominated soils, which is not favored by some crops. In general, I would prefer mulching with wood chips to not mulching.

I've had a lot of success sheet mulching with wood chips. If you bury them they will use a lot of the nitrogen but on the surface they keep the soil covered, moist and create habitat for fungi and worms. It changed a really poor soil in my front yard that could barely grow weeds to a beautiful black soil full of microbial life.

I have been trying to build my clay soil using wood chips for a long time, in Charlotte, NC. I had about 100 yards of arborist wood chips dumped into my back yard a year ago and I added some synthtic fertilizer to speed up the process. Now I know that was the wrong thing to do. I have heard people tilling the wood chips into the soil which robs nitrogetn for a year or 2. any other ideas to speed up the wood to soil conversion? I have also experienced just letting wood chip piles sit and over about 6 years a 6' tall pile will off gas to something about 6 inches tall. very hard to believe till you see it first hand.

While this seems to be true, it also seems like fungal decomposition of residue helps the soil become more fungal dominated overall, which helps mycorrhiza do it's thing. See here for more info on that. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b6qamZyWzsudZ58.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ap6VjdB7uarbp2w.html

Hi John! Great explanation! The only thing I didn't get 100% is if the fungi do incorporate the residue into their bodies or not... At 5:32 it is said they don't release anything back to the soil profile but at 5:47 it is said it is released back. I have a feeling it is held and kept close while digestion occurs but not incorporated. Right?

They don't "release" it back as a waste product after digestion, like bacteria do. They release it back upon their death as the mushrooms decompose.

I am having a hard time understanding your assertion that a cover crop can be either for fertilization OR for soil building. Not both at the same time. To me, your explanation of N:C is suspect. Because each plant cell has a phospholipid bilayer, I was expecting you to say that the fungi digest the lipids present in plant residues, while the bacteria do the carbohydrates et al. So it seems to me that the limiting factor in soil building using crop residues would be the presence or absence of diverse, beneficial bacterial AND fungal populations in the soil. And of course proper aeration.
