Micorrhyzae help roots

This seems like a good follow up to my blog earlier this week about roots.  You may recall that I pointed out that roots contact about 1% of the soil, while micorrhyzae fungi contact about 10% of the soil and help bring water and nutrients to plants.  As I learn more, I am convinced that enhancement of micorrhyzae is important to carry yields to new heights.  According to No-Till Farmer a Canadian researcher is looking at inoculation of crops with beneficial micorrhyzae.  The research so far is showing that no-till enhances the survival of the beneficial fungi.
