Why Is Soil Microbiome and Fungi So Important?

AMF – Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi

• These fungi form a partnership with
• plant roots, extending far into the soil.
• They act like extra roots—helping plants absorb more water and nutrients, especially phosphorus.
• AMF also boost plant immunity, improve drought resistance, and store carbon in the soil through a special protein called Glomalin.

Trichoderma - A powerful beneficial fungus that lives in the root zone.

• It protects plants by outcompeting harmful fungi and pathogens.
• It also stimulates root growth, helps plants recover from stress, and can break down organic matter into usable nutrients.
