Soil Performance Systems: How Diatomaceous Earth Is Reshaping Australian Agriculture
Australian agriculture is shifting from input-heavy farming to soil efficiency systems driven by rising fertiliser costs and supply volatility. Diatomaceous earth, combined with complementary mineral systems, is emerging as a functional soil performance solution that improves fertiliser efficiency, silicon cycling, and water retention. This article explores how these systems support more productive and resilient Australian farming under fertiliser-constrained conditions.
