About the Event

Healthy soil is characterized as strong, resilient, and stable, with the ability to develop and self-sustain a myriad of ecosystem services (e.g., carbon and nitrogen accumulation, nutrient cycling, high water quality, and storage), as well as to sustain a vital living ecosystem (crops, animals and humans). Building and maintaining a healthy soil go beyond reducing soil erosion and compaction. Since a healthy soil is a pivotal component in the nexus of soil-plant-water-air-energy, how we treat the soil can massively impact global food security and the environment. Regenerative agriculture has at its core the intention to build and maintain healthy soils or restore degraded soils, which enhances land productivity and produces more nutritious food with a lower environmental footprint. During this talk, we will go over the Soil Health concept and principles, management practices that build or maintain healthy soils, and the importance to a land manager and the environment.
