Bounce Back Fast: Cultivating Crop Resilience Through Soil Health
Tune in as Dianna Bagnall, Research Soil Scientist for the Soil Health Institute, talks us through the relationship between improving soil health and growing more resilient crops. As farming becomes ever more difficult in the face of unpredictable growing conditions, cultivating crop resilience is key to the livelihoods of farmers and maintaining yields to keep food, feed, and fiber production rolling.
