Two Definitions of soil?

Two Definitions of soil?

 As defined by Hans Jenny, the Father of Soil Science: 

1. Mineral: Sand, silt, clay - All minerals properly balanced 

2. Organic matter

3. (Aerobic) Organisms

As defined by the “Green Revolution” and scientists trained by the chemical industry: 

1. Mineral: Sand, silt, clay - All minerals properly balanced

2. Inorganic, soluble, minerals (NPK) must be added to this ‘inert support matrix’ to supply plants with nutrients

Conclusion: The corporates have altered the definition of soil.
