PA Sustainable Agriculture Hosts April 2 Webinar On Unearthing Soil Trends - Insights From Our Study Of 100+ Farms

The PA Sustainable Agriculture Association will host an April 2 webinar On Unearthing Soil Trends - Insights From Our Study Of 100+ Farms from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.

During this webinar we’ll explore the top findings from our recently published Soil Health Benchmarks 2021 Report, which offers fresh insights into how farmers can improve soil stewardship to more effectively protect ecosystems and communities, better withstand severe weather, and increase yields.

Topics include--

-- How many farmers are able to balance tillage and growing soil health

-- How excess phosphorus from soil amendments could be reducing your yields, polluting water, and costing you money—and what you can do about it

-- How increasingly severe, wet weather brought by climate change could impact soil health in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast

They will also briefly cover the methods, scope, and limits of our study and provide information about how to participate.
