Soil Sessions -- Soil Health and the Five Soil Health Principles
from ATTRA - Voices from the Field · host NCAT
In this episode, Nina Prater, a soil specialist with NCAT's ATTRA sustainable agriculture program, sits down for a conversation with NCAT Southeast Regional Director Margo Hale to talk about the basics of soil health and to go over the five soil health principles that farmers and ranchers can follow to regenerate soil to a healthy, productive condition. Margo is a livestock specialist, and she earned two degrees in Animal Science without a single soil class. Nina tries to remedy this around the office on a regular basis, so they decided to record one of these conversations. Margo and Nina both work out of NCAT's regional office in Fayetteville, Arkansas.For more information on this topic, you can contact Nina Prater directly at [email protected] and Margo Hale at [email protected] ATTRA Resources:Soil Health and Regenerative Agriculture PodcastBuilding Healthy Pasture SoilsIntegrating Livestock and Crops: Improving Soil, Solving Problems, Increasing IncomeSoil Health TutorialHow to Add Compost on Your Small FarmOther ResourcesSARE: Building Soil for Better CropsPlease call ATTRA with any and all of your sustainable agriculture questions at 1-800-346-9140 or e-mail us at [email protected].
