Soil biology is no "magic" though.

It's almost as if you were suggesting that organic regenerative ag is based on some sort of non-scientific cult but that's not really the case.

From an agricultural stand point not necessarily from a consumers who are passionate about it perspective, there's a huge amount of culty anti science.

Mehhhhhh...organic and / or natural anything is based on separating fools from their money. That's not to say that there aren't small numbers of highly informed people who understand what "organic" agriculture is doing, it's to say that the vast majority of people who believe things about "organic" foods believe wrong things. It's conflated with naturalness marketing woo.

That’s irrelevant though, because in this thread we are discussing agricultural production not marketing.
