SUMMARY:Enhancing Investment in Soil Health and Carbon Storage: Frontiers for Linking Finance and Carbon Accounting
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this web seminar is to support investment-oriented actions promoting soil health and carbon storage by improving the accounting of soil carbon sequestration. We seek to answer the question: How can soil carbon accounting improve to support investment-oriented actions promoting soil health and carbon storage? To this end\, participants will examine opportunities for action using novel methods and frontier technologies that enable linking technical practices with finance and policy for accurate and cost-efficient SOC accounting. The workshop will also examine how improved SOC accounting can support three priority lines for action (Vermeulen\, et al. 2019): policy\, business development\, and value for farmers to promote scaling up of investment in soil health and carbon storage. The key output of the meeting will be a summary of the state of the art of the component methodologies or a combination thereof\, and what is needed next to make these most useable for investors to account for SOC sequestration.\nLearn more here.

SUMMARY:Measures of Soil Nitrogen Cycling
DESCRIPTION:Measuring and assessing soil health are critical for understanding how changes in agronomic management practices affect the capability of soil to support cropping systems. In this presentation\, the Soil Health Institute will focus on explaining measurements and assessments of soil health associated with soil-nitrogen dynamics. Soil scientists have been working to estimate rates of nitrogen mineralization for use in soil fertility recommendations for generations. The Soil Health Institute has investigated various means of measuring the microbially mediated process of nitrogen cycling and will discuss: soil organic carbon and nitrogen\, potentially mineralizable nitrogen\, microbial respiration\, inorganic and organic nitrogen extractions\, N-Acetyl-β-D-Glucosaminidase (NAG enzyme)\, and autoclaved-citrate extractable soil protein (ACE protein). For each measurement\, the method or methods will be described and the meaning of the measurement will be discussed\, especially as it pertains to on-farm advisers and farmers. Insights and examples from the North American Project to Evaluate Soil Health Measurements will be shared to provide contextual understanding of each measurement.\n\nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Resilience and Soil Health
DESCRIPTION:The topic will be resilience and soil health and will feature Gregg Sanford of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In this talk\, Gregg will discuss the findings from this long-term analysis of perennial and diverse agroecosystems and their importance for farming in a changing climate. \nRegister here.
