In this episode of Farm4Profit, we dive into the fascinating world of Sea Energy Agriculture with Lynn Hoover and Michael Sileck from Sea-90 Ocean Minerals. Together, they explain how ocean-derived minerals—first studied by Dr. Maynard Murray—are helping today’s farmers restore soil balance, enhance fertility programs, and improve both animal and human health.
This Farm4Profit episode brings listeners a deep dive into the science and story of Sea Energy Agriculture, tracing how ocean minerals have moved from experimental hydroponic plots in Florida to practical, profitable farm programs across North America.
Guests Lynn Hoover, Senior Director of Agronomy and Commercial Sales, and Michael Sileck, Commercial Sales Leader for Sea-90 and Baja Gold Salt Co., join the hosts to share how the 90+ balanced minerals and trace elements found in ocean water can rebuild soil vitality, elevate livestock performance, and close the loop between soil, plant, and human health.
Listeners will discover:
The Origins – How Dr. Maynard Murray, a medical doctor and physiologist, pioneered ocean-water research, proving that sea solids could rejuvenate mineral-deficient soils and improve the health of animals and humans alike.
Modern Application – How Sea-90 brings those findings into modern agriculture with naturally balanced ocean minerals—5x more mineral content than competitors and the lowest sodium levels of any salt available.
Real-World Results – Case studies showing improved crop performance in grass, grain, and bean programs, and measurable gains in livestock health and fertility when using Sea-90 as part of feeding and pasture systems.
The Big Picture – How the Sea-90 approach supports regenerative agriculture by reconnecting soil health, plant nutrition, animal vitality, and ultimately human well-being.
The conversation also explores practical takeaways:
What sets ocean minerals apart from conventional fertility inputs.
How Sea-90 integrates into current crop and livestock operations.
Common misconceptions about mineral programs—and how science and on-farm data dispel them.
Why balanced mineralization is foundational for nutrient density, yield stability, and long-term profitability.
