Paramagnetism in Agriculture

Research into photon/light emissions can also be confirmed at home by poking a pin hole through a camera lens cover, then strapping some paramagnetic material across the hole. The lens cover is put on a camera, set to slow release, and left in total darkness for 3 weeks. When developed, the film displays a bright circle of 'light' radiating out from the pinhole.

Oxygen is the most paramagnetic element on earth. It is thought that volcanic magma droplets are 'charged' with oxygen when they hit the atmosphere and the varying paramagnetic intensities of the ensuing rocks are determined by the differential cooling rates of the magma. More often than not, highly paramagnetic soils are found on the upper slopes of volcanically derived hills and mountains. Soils around Blackbutt Qld and Alstonville NSW have particularly high paramagnetic readings.

Paramagnetic materials also appear to act as an anntenna by collecting, and presumably storing ELF (extremely low frequency radio waves) from atmospheric lightning, and possibly other energy sources.

While the above phenomenon have been researched and generally acknowledged by mainstream science, the main controversy over paramagnetism seems to stem from its claims that it enhances plant growth. Apart from the observation that the world's most fertile soils are highly paramagnetic, trials have demonstrated enhanced plant growth due to paramagnetism. In these trials paramagnetic material was isolated from the planting medium to ensure there was no mineral effect from the paramagnetic material occurring. It seems logical that plant roots may well respond to photon/light energy emitted around their roots over long periods of time. As many advocates state though - trial it for yourself. Even germination trials can show up significant differences.

Esoterically, paramagnetic materials are said to have a stimulating effect on plants due to a yin and yang effect. From a more conventional point of view it can be likened to the creation of poles - one positive, one negative creating a charge or energy wave between, as perhaps is the case with paramagnetic soils and diamagnetic plant roots. In nature, it is interesting to note the regular occurrence of so-called 'opposing forces' where life exists.

The above paragraphs are taken from an article on Carolyn Ditchfield's fantastic website, From the Soil Up. I like it because it recognizes the potential of harnessing subtle forces of nature to enhance life.

At the same time I found a website about carbon farming.
