Manufacturers label most herbicides pesticides and fungicides as “broadband” products. These products are designed to kill a wide range of weeds insects and fungus. Broadband products often harm or kill beneficial insects and fungi that nourish the soil and plants. Each application will harm bees butterflies ladybugs and beneficial natural fungus that support the soil and plants.
Fertilizers can harm the soil in several ways. They can make the soil acidic. They can deplete the soil of productive nutrients. They can reduce the presence of micro-organisms. They can diminish the minerals in the soil. Continued use creates hard compacted unhealthy soil. This soil becomes deprived of oxygen and moisture. The lack of oxygen and moisture makes it harder for roots to flourish.
Farmers often use ammonia to provide the nitrogen that plants need. Ammonia promotes the growth of harmful bacteria and other microorganisms that can cause disease in plants such as E. coli.
