With a diverse ecosystem, the benefits are endless. Diversity in the form of plants and animals is one way to keep your ecosystem healthy. Soil health also relies on a diverse range of organisms for its well-being, as they all contribute something special towards making sure that there are enough nutrients available where needed most.
