[QUOTE="Deer Slayer, post: 4338692, member: 8855"] I have planted 8 acres at my farm and have held off planting at my house. I will be planting shortly though. I planted 2 deer candy persimmon trees this past week and the first thing I noticed was how moist my soil was. I have approx. 1.5" of thatch on my field which has insulated the ground from rapidly drying out. I have also notices that the soil is approx 5 degs cooler than the air temperature. I have also noticed that my clover and vetch has come out of dormancy and is growing along with some rye. The deer are grazing it. What is different? What is different, well I have been practicing what I have been preaching about regenerative agricultural practices. I have taken my soil samples and added the micro and macro nutrients plus the recommended fertilizers that the soil analysis indicated were needed for the past 3 years. The soil is protected with the thatch, is cooler and has more moisture, and more life in it. I am practicing what I preach and am seeing the results of my labor. [/QUOTE]
