Rethinking how to grow crops by going deeper into the soil. This nonfiction guide examines a radical idea: deepen soil health and moisture storage by treating the subsoil, not just the surface. It presents a practical view of how roots access water, air, and nutrients at greater depths to improve yields and resilience.
< p>Through clear explanations and historical context, this edition shows how farmers can rethink cultivation, drainage, and water management. It argues that deeper, informed soil alteration can make farming possible across many regions and seasons, with the goal of steadier, more productive crops.
Ideal for readers of agricultural history and practitioners curious about soil science and new farming methods.

Excerpt from Vertical Farming
The Part Played by Water. - Much rock material is slowly dissolved out and carried away by rain water. This is usually carried long distances before being thrown back into a solid state by the evaporation of the water, or by coming into con tact with some other substance that causes it to be precipitated. Often this reforms into another rock that may be harder than the original one.
