“The two-day event is designed to provide opportunities “for farmers and crop consultants to learn about the latest technology and practices for conserving soil and improving water quality and how that can boost their financial bottom line while conserving their soils.”- Randall Reeder
Understanding Soil Phosphorus
In an optimal system with good soil health, the need for P fertilizer may be greatly diminished.
Building Soil Carbon
Understanding the carbon cycle is the first step to effectively building soil organic matter.
Future Agricultural Technology
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) or drones are often used to collect plant and soil health information.
