A new Swiss study demonstrates that organic soils have more soil microbes, more mycorrhizae – the fungi that attach themselves to the tips of plant roots and help plants absorb nutrients - and more earthworms. It found that soil insects are twice as abundant and more diverse in organic plots, including pest-eating spiders and beetles.
There was also the presence of flaws in the transportation and processing procedures. The preliminary findings indicated that cattle being carriers of the E. Coli O157: H7, could have contaminated the water through their droppings. Improper cooking of the spinach is another likely cause of the spread.
