Hello, dear sister. I am from the State of Bahrain. I have increased calcium carbonate and very high salinity after using agricultural gypsum and slaked lime a lot. I have increased salinity and alkalinity, especially since we live in the Middle East, where the soil is alkaline. I ask your Excellency for advice and guidance on treating the high salinity of agricultural soil, as the plants suffer and die. I am a fan of natural fertilization, oregano. Thank you very much.

We need to electrify all the soil because it's releasing CO2.

My name is Sol. I ask you the product for soil improvement as biofertilizer for soil health, brack down the chemical pesticide as DDT or dioxin?

siince co2 is a gas, you should just be able to use the soil flask and connect a hose to a flask containing sodium hydroxide. sodium hydroxide turns into sodium bicarbonate when co2 is bubbled through. once the co2 builds up enough in the soil flask it would create enough pressure to bubble through the sodium hydroxide solution. this method would show you if any co2 was produced from the soil flask. your method could have who knows what making its way through to the last flask. and i got kicked out of school a month into freshman year and only ever got an HSED. if you really are a college educated person, you make me look like a genius
