“Soil health: perspectives and practical applications”. Abstract:

Beat that Winter Blues and come out Wednesday January 17th at 5 PM in the Graham Hall Grad Student Lounge. Join us for a fun filled night of board games, cards, or the possible settlement of Catan. Meet up with old friends and make some new ones, while enjoying a potluck of snacks. We ask if you can't bring a snack to the party that you donate 2$ to cover snack costs. Feel free to bring a board game with you if you'd like.   

Everyone is invited to join us in welcoming Scott Krayenhoff to SES.

Soil health is not just a product of the chemical, physical and biological makeup of agricultural fields but is also an outcome of the economic, political and social pressures of our farms. This seminar is a reflection on the challenges and opportunities to influence the practical adoption of best practices for soil management.
