Rocky Mountain BioAg® is a proof-first soil health education channel focused on exposing soil myths, running real field tests, and showing what actually builds resilient soil systems. We teach and apply the Biological…Beyond Organic® (BBO™) methodology Structure → Life → Energy → Track to move growers from rescue to long-term resilience.
For over 16 years, RMBA has supported home lawns, gardens, vineyards, golf courses, specialty crops, and production farms, including projects exceeding 100,000 contiguous acres. Our content is grounded in field diagnostics, not guesswork, covering soil structure, biology, water movement, root function, microbial balance, and nutrient cycling.
On this channel you’ll find soil myth breakdowns, simple field tests, biological diagnostics (including microbiome and fungal:bacterial balance), and real-world case studies from lawns to large-scale agriculture.
If you care about proof over promises, you’re in the right place.
Established 2008.

We’ve been managing the wrong thing.
Most lawn and land advice starts with grass.
This conversation starts where the real work happens.
👉 Grass is the symptom. Soil is the system.

Why do so many lawns fail even when you follow the program perfectly?
In our latest Soil Talks™ Podcast, we sat down with Rob Gaunt of Moyer Indoor | Outdoor for a deep, honest conversation about what’s missing from modern lawn care and why chemicals alone can’t fix it.
This episode breaks down:
• Why fertilizer programs fail long-term
• What “soil biology” actually does
• Why roots and microbes matter more than products
• How soil-first thinking changes everything
If you manage lawns, turf, or landscapes and want results that last, this episode is a must.

The Green Philosophy: Soil-First Lawn Care
For decades, lawn care has been dominated by chemicals, schedules, and guesswork.
But healthy lawns don’t start with products they start with biology.
In this Soil Talks™ Podcast episode, we sit down with Rob Gaunt, Plant Pathologist and ISA Arborist, to explore a soil-first philosophy that focuses on biology, root systems, and living soil not short-term chemical fixes.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why fertilizers and chemicals often fail long-term
What living soil actually means
How biological systems drive plant health from the ground up
Why soil biology is missing from most lawn care programs
How to move beyond chemicals and into regeneration
This conversation is foundational for anyone managing turf, landscapes, or soil systems who wants results that last, not seasonal band-aids.
Soil Talks™ Podcast is where we break down soil biology, plant health, and regenerative systems, one conversation at a time.

Biology Feeds Everything.
Fertilizer doesn’t grow crops.
Chemistry doesn’t build resilience.
Function does.
In this Soil Talks™ episode, we dig into the living system beneath your feet the biology that actually turns nutrients into yield, resilience, and long-term profitability.
If you’ve ever wondered why:
• Soil tests look great, but crops still struggle
• Inputs keep going up while margins shrink
• “More fertilizer” doesn’t fix the problem
This conversation will connect the dots.
🎙️ Featuring Tom Vander Heiden (GM of Ag, ST Biologicals) breaking down how soil biology, not inputs alone, determines outcomes in real fields.

NEW SOIL TALKS™ PODCAST — DROPS TOMORROW
Most growers don’t fail because they’re doing something wrong.
They fail because the system they’re running no longer works.
In tomorrow’s episode of Soil Talks™, we sit down with the team from Purple Cow Organics / BioActive Ag (👉 @bioactiveag) to break down a hard truth the industry is finally facing:
➡️ NPK isn’t the problem
➡️ Biology isn’t optional
➡️ Economics decide whether regenerative systems survive
➡️ Diversity and functional redundancy matter more than products
➡️ Soil must be treated as infrastructure, not an input
This is a technical, honest, field-grounded conversation about what actually works at scale and what doesn’t.
If you care about:
• Yield stability
• Input efficiency
• Drought and stress resilience
• Long-term margins
• Real soil function
This episode is required listening.

NEW SOIL TALKS™ PODCAST DROPS FRIDAY
The Farm Debt Trap (Nobody Wants to Say Out Loud)
🎙️ Featuring Taylor Henry, Owner & CEO of Acres U.S.A.
For decades, farmers have been told to push harder, borrow more, and trust the system.
But what if the real problem isn’t yield…
What if it’s the economic model underneath it?
In this episode, we go straight at the issue most people avoid:
• Why the conventional input model keeps farms locked in debt
• How regenerative agriculture only works when the numbers work
• Why soil health without economics is a dead end
• The Albrecht legacy and why mineral balance still matters at scale
• What Acres U.S.A. gets right that most of the industry misses
This is not theory.
This is not hype.
This is regenerative agriculture with receipts.

Most people think the hardest part of transitioning to regenerative systems is the agronomy.
It’s not.
The real hurdle is mindset social pressure, short-term thinking, and managing land for appearances instead of outcomes.
This clip is from a longer Soil Talks™ conversation on what actually stops good operators from making the shift and how to move through it without risking the operation.

Organic isn’t the finish line. It’s the starting point.
If your soil still crusts, compacts, or needs constant rescue
you don’t need more “organic” inputs.
👉 You need a biological system that actually cycles.
🎓 The Biological...Beyond Organic® (BBO™) Method is your blueprint to:
✅ Rebuild soil structure from the inside out
✅ Restart microbial succession (in the right order)
✅ Fix your fungal:bacterial ratios (F:B)
✅ Feed microbes what they ACTUALLY need to thrive
This isn’t a guesswork program.
It’s field-tested, biologically sequenced, and results-driven.
