Transforming Desert To Farmland

From bloomthedesert.com:

You may remember - last November - when I informed you of our Bloom the Desert project and the trial desert farm in Dubai - kindly sponsored by Ahmed - and I promised an update on plant growth and soil tests....

For those unfamilar with this kind of agriculture and what all of this means: The test results below show we reduced the hight sodium of over 12 pH to approx 8.2- with our SALT REDUCING MICROBES- this has NOT been DONE BEFORE without costly fertilizers- and is basically a first of its kind combination.

It means that arid land anywhere- anytime- can be transformed into fertilie land- using these LOW cost combined techniques we have developed- and that MINIMAL use of (organic) fertilizer would be required- this keeps the cost of farm production down.
