Bury your underwear to see the diversity of soils.

Did you know that you just need to plant men's organic cotton underwear to discover the diversity of your soils? This is a vital issue.

This is the result you need to achieve to find out if our soils are fertile enough. In a few grams of soil live around 10 billion microorganisms! Each has a role: storing carbon, filtering water, helping to fertilize the soil to ensure plant growth.

This scientific experiment comes from Canada, and hundreds of farmers are now practicing it in France. But not just farmers! Even individuals who have a small garden

We were contacted 2 years ago by the Ile de Ré, which distributed underwear to residents so they could see the state of their soil. The approach may seem surprising, but the residents of the municipality buried our underwear and recovered it 2 months later.

The result is surprising: almost nothing remains except the elastic. And this is a very good sign. The microorganisms that inhabit our soils will devour it. On the other hand, we can also see the disasters of drought, where underwear buried in summer will not move. A sign that there is no diversity in our soils. Through this simple example, we see the full extent of the climate change challenge.

Moreover, there is even an Ademe campaign to raise awareness about soil diversity.
