I look at the diversity of insect life and the health of my plants , and I'm pretty sure my soil is healthy . Lots of worms , spiders , crickets , stuff - I use no insecticide chemicals , and it's made a difference . It's all interdependent , if one piece is broke none of it works right .

if you have diversity then one piece can be broken and others will take up the gap until the piece can recover.
but it is a dynamic system, things can change all the time. like a few years ago i was picking Japanese beetles off wild grape vines because there were so many of them and i didn't want them to get on the beans. this year and last year it wasn't so bad. etc...
