The key to a sustainable agricultural program is the balance between each of these
three components, each one enhancing the other.

BIOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Our Biological Management System uses analytical tools to determine microbial community structure, function and biomass. The goal is to establish and culture a healthy, living soil and plant ecology. Healthy soil is achieved by developing a sound, soil microbial environment which is conducive to
healthy root and plant development, controlling diseases and maximizing the productive capacity of
the soil. Establishment of a healthy soil micro flora will maximize water use efficiency, maximize nutrient uptake, encourage a stable aerated soil structure, produce biological metabolites, encourage
soil humus formation and decreases nutrient runoff, creating an environmentally sound, financially
profitable, and socially responsible overall farming practice. The processes involved include the
properly managed use of cover crops, well made compost and judicious use of manures and other soil
amendments. In the modern farming system, these practices can all be enhanced or replaced by the
use of ABC Organics Primordial Solutions products.

MINERAL NUTRITION
The ABC Mineral Nutrition Management System uses soil, tissue and sap test to determine
qualitative and quantitative nutrient status and make corrections before problems occur: This differs
greatly from the growers standard as it addresses issues before they cause damage to your crops
or a loss in production.

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”
–Benjamin Franklin
Maintaining a balanced soil fertility program must utilize the right mineral resources. Sole reliance upon
chemical inputs has been the standard for soil and plant nutrition for the last century. Virgin-soil has
been depleted of its accumulated biological compounds and biodiversity as a result of mismanaged and
over use of chemicals. By reducing or eliminating use of chemical inputs the grower can insure that they
do not negatively impact the soil and plant ecology. For example, it is commonly preferred to use gypsum
to correct saline soils and improve structure; however, in most cases the judicious use of lime would be
more advantageous because of its increased available calcium. Another example would be the excessive
use of nutrients leading to imbalances which harm the soil micro flora which increases plant stress.

DISEASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The ABC Disease Management System reduces the farmers dependence on chemical by enlisting all three
principle mechanisms of biological control.

a

Competition | Antibiosis

By providing a wide range of organisms Primordial Solutions products out compete pathogens for space
coating the leaves and roots of your plants with symbiotic organisms as opposed to pathogenic ones.
Beneficial bacteria and fungi produce environmentally formulated antibiotics limiting the ability for
pathogens to infect plants. By inoculating plants early on and throughout its life cycle the farmer gains
the ability to protect his crops using products which are non-toxic and assist in maintaining the fertility of
his soils.

b

Induced Systemic Resistance

Compounds created by a healthy microbial ecosystem have been shown by countless studies and field
trials to prime plants “immune systems”. By using known organic and naturally sourced compounds the
Primordial Solutions product line nourishes the plants natural abilities to resist diseases and insects.

c

Parasitism | Predation

By limiting the need for systemic biocides, fungicides and insecticides natures systems of predatory insects, nematodes, fungi and bacteria can be maintained. This gives the farmer 24 hour a day 7 day a week
natural protection for his plants.

PRIMORDIAL SOLUTIONS APPROACH TO
SOIL FERTILITY VS. CHEMICAL APPROACH

In 1855, Justus von Liebig’s discovery that plants are
fed by water-soluble substances started a revolution in
agriculture. However, this revolution progressed in a different direction-far from the truly original thinking of Liebig.
Von Liebig’s discovery reads:


“Plants take up water-soluble nutrients.”

This discovery became internationally understood, unfortunately, a single word
was added to Liebig’s statement:


“Plants take up water-soluble ionic nutrients.”

This single addition changed the truth of his discovery: First to recognize the important misunderstanding

was Liebig himself. This addition leads to an interpretation that negated Liebig’s total work in agriculture.
Other Liebig findings were:




“Man must regard nature as a unit, a whole,
and everything that occurs in nature works together as knots in a net.”



“Diseases of plants are diseases of the soil.”



“We must treat the origin of the disease, not the symptom.”

It is important to understand that if the soil is living and healthy, the plants will be strong and healthy with
natural resistance against disease as will the creatures and people that consume them. This is the basic
pillar of biological farming.
The chemical approach sees the soil only as a place to anchor the plants: hydroponics being their environment of choice. The chemical approach takes into account only the minerals, a limited range of elements. Comparing them to the crop to be grown, they determine the amounts of these nutrients to be
used chemically without considering the biological needs of the soil-plant relationships. Although this approach is still widely used, it has been modified to take into account the influence each mineral has to another mineral. The chemical-purist may not look at all known nutrients the plant needs for total nutrition.
For example, vanadium and chromium, though usable and needed by plants in special conditions, will
not be acknowledged in the chemical approach. Recently some chemical-purists have been using VAM,
and some limited inoculants containing a handful of microorganism species to help with their system.
Yet, their approach to these microorganisms is still the same purist boxed in system of using the soil as a

container and not a living environment. This approach is detrimental to farmers and their soil.

PRIMORDIAL SOLUTIONS APPROACH TO
SOIL FERTILITY VS. CHEMICAL APPROACH
The Primordial Solutions Approach to Soil Fertility looks at the whole of soil-plant relations. This approach
accounts for the biochemical functions in soils and in plants, not just mineral nutrient applications. Three
components are implemented to achieve balanced, total nutrition for plants and soil.

Our Biological Management system establishes and cultures a healthy living soil and
plant ecology with emphasis on microbial community structure and diversity .
Our Mineral Nutrition Management systems uses appropriate mineral inputs, while
harnessing the vast, existing natural resources beneath our feet, the soil.
Our Disease Management system utilizes natural defenses with limited chemical inputs.
Hydroponics and soil farming are two distinctively different systems of plant anabolism (biosynthesis). The hydroponics environment is kept sterile and separated from the outside environment. In soil farming the soil is
always interacting with its surroundings-immediate and remote. The importance of soil quality for soil-based
anabolism is often undervalued. Soil quality is needed to provide a complete nutritional base, not only for
plants, but also for the microorganisms in the soil.
Minerals in soil systems have complex pathways and are dynamic compared to the static presence of minerals
in hydroponics. For example, in hydroponics there is no leaching of minerals. However, leaching is a fact in soils.
In hydroponics all media and equipment is sterilized before every crop. However, pathogens are a fact in every
soil. Therefore, what is learned in hydroponics cannot necessarily be applied to living soils. Soils must be viewed
as living; hence the soil farming process is directed anabolism not just of the plant but also of the soil.
To increase the output of a field simply means to increase the rate of anabolism within the soil. So one has to
know the limitations of the anabolism and address them to increase the farm’s overall output. One of the limits
of production can be the genetic limit to the plants, but in almost all instances this limit is not reached in farming due to its expression as assisted by the grower. Most of the time the true limiting factor in production is the
nutrient supply and timing to the plant during its growing season.
The chemical approach to increasing anabolism goes back to Liebig’s misrepresented discovery and states:
“Plants take up ionic minerals and the minerals are the limiting factor to increased production, therefore all we
need to do is supply the minerals ‘directly’ to the plant.”
Let us examine the soil metabolism. The limiting factor of anabolism is, as stated, the mineral supply; but the
mineral supply in turn is dependent on the rate of catabolism (mineralization and humification). In natural
(non-farmed) soils, the rate of anabolism over a period of several years is equal to the rate of catabolism during

the same period. The humus content of the soil (from humification) acts as storage for nutrients. The rates of
anabolism and catabolism are not equal in any given year, but only in a period of several years which is made
possible by the humus. In a year when weather may be very advantageous for plant growth, the rate of mineralization is not able to supply the needed nutrients for the increased plant growth.

PRIMORDIAL SOLUTIONS APPROACH TO
SOIL FERTILITY VS. CHEMICAL APPROACH
The humus, through microbial action, will be able to release some of the adsorbed minerals for plant use,
allowing the rates of catabolism and anabolism to be unequal. Figure 1 shows this basic metabolic cycle in
soils. In the chemical-purist approach, the rate of anabolism is increased for soil-systems by the addition
of free minerals to the soil as in Figure 2.

figure 1
The rainbow colors of the illustration to the left represent well-balanced co-metabolite production.
The width of this line represents the amount of co-metabolites produced. The following illustrations
depict the effects of the different approaches to the soil life.
In figure 2 below, the chemical addition of free minerals bypasses (short circuits) the catabolic process. By
bypassing the catabolism, a major factor is being overlooked: the vast complexities of metabolic by-products. These co-metabolites play a role in regulation of the anabolic processes, influence the microflora,
and indirectly influence the soil structure, water and mineral holding capacity, crop nutrition, and the
phytopathogenity of the soil.

figure 2
The detrimental influence of the chemical-purist approach on the soil is taking place relatively slowly.
Over time the huge buffer capacity of the soils organic mater reserve is mineralized without replenishment, and is slowly broken down with changes in soils becoming more noticeable. More and more farmers, when looking back twenty years, note the ever-increasing dependence on chemicals.
