{"product_id":"albrechts-foundation-concepts-vol-i","title":"Albrecht's Foundation Concepts, Vol. I","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis valuable collection of essays reveals the insights of a brilliant soil scientist who was ahead of his time. In this volume, readers will find a carefully organized and convincing explanation of the relationship between plants and animals. Dr. William Albrecht sustains his theory and observation that a declining soil fertility, due to a lack of organic material, major elements, and trace minerals – or a marked imbalance in these nutrients – was responsible for poor crops and in turn for pathological conditions in animals fed deficient feeds from soils. These papers addressed to scientists, and especially to farmers who worked with nature are an invaluable foundation for anyone interested in sustainable agriculture. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCopyright, 1975, 2011, softcover, 515 pages. 20 in a case.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTable of Contents – A Sample\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Fertility and Plant Nutrition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNitrogen-Fixation as Influenced by Calcium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Acidity is Beneficial, Not Harmful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFertilizing Soils With Nitrogen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Soil Nitrogen Supply is Still a Big Problem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrace Elements and the Production of Proteins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlants — Protected by Fertile Soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Fertility — The Basis for Formulating an Agricultural Policy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeglect of Soil Fertility Reflected in Farm Animals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHidden Hungers Point to Soil Fertility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Microbes Get Their Food First\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Management by Nature or Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRead more!\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead an excerpt from Chapter 18 \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ecofarmingdaily.com\/book-excerpt-albrechts-foundation-concepts\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Read an excerpt from Chapter 18 of Albrecht's Foundation Concepts by William A.

Albrecht (1888–1974) Ph.D., was undoubtedly the preeminent soil scientist of his time. During his long and distinguished career, Dr. Albrecht made the case for an agronomy based on healthy soil ecosystems rather than simplistic chemical inputs, even as this latter approach was being introduced as the “scientific” agriculture of the future. Dr. Albrecht was a prolific author of articles, books, and scientific reports; upon his death in 1974, his research was willed to Acres U.S.A. founder and his personal friend, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.acresusa.com\/collections\/charles-walters\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"All books written by Charles Walters, founder of Acres U.S.A.\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eCharles Walters\u003c\/a\u003e.
