Biological Crop Steering

๐ŸŒฟ Cultivation First mentioned: Ep. 246

A practice coined by Brandon Rust that uses timing, placement, and quantity of beneficial microbes -- similar to agronomic principles -- to elicit specific plant responses at specific times in the growth cycle.

Uses combinations like Bacillus subtilis, Trichoderma, and Beauveria bassiana for dual efficacy: pathogen control while simultaneously increasing nutrient use efficiency and solubility. Represents a shift from reactive pest management to proactive biological programming.
