This lecture by Dr. David Montgomery will present research from his books Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations and Growing a Revolution: Bringing Our Soil Back to Life, with a particular focus on the benefits of no-till farming and cover crop management. The aim is to provide a profitable recipe to rebuild soil organic matter, cultivate beneficial soil life, smother weeds, and suppress pests while using far less fossil fuel, fertilizer, and pesticide for a positive impact on the health of your environment, workers, and profitability.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service will also be on hand to answer questions and share resources developed for farmers to increase soil health and grower profitability. For more information, visit: https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/main/or/soils/health/
