Hi Saneters,
I wanted to briefly get back to this point for clarification. I have a 
high regard for the SARE publication "Building Soils for Better Crops" 
by Univ of Vt plant and soil professor emeritus Fred Magdoff and Cornell 
University soil science professor Harold van Es.
"Building Soils for Better Crops", now in it's 3rd edition, is a 
valuable book for farmers and gardeners and may be purchased from SARE 
or downloaded free at: www.sare.org/publications/soils.htm.

Building Soils for Better Crops is a one-of-a-kind, practical guide to 
ecological soil management, now expanded and in full color. It provides 
step-by-step information on soil-improving practices as well as in-depth 
background—from what soil is to the importance of organic matter. Case 
studies of farmers from across the country provide inspiring examples of 
how soil—and whole farms—have been renewed through these techniques. A 
must-read for farmers, educators and students alike.
