The fundamental activity that has the greatest impact on plant health. Increased photosynthesis has many positive effects leading to increased yields and greater resistance to hazards like pests and excessive heat or cold. Importantly, it promotes microbial respiration, which captures CO2 producing much needed carbon sequestration (carbon cycling) to help grow soil organic matter. Soil organic matter is directly correlated with yield. Increased photosynthesis also, through root exudation, expands the fungal activity (i.e. mycorrhizae) in the soil, giving the plant greater access to water and nutrients from the soil. This promotes faster growth and helps the plants through periods of heat or cold.
