SUMMARY:Assessing Soil Health: On-Farm Economics
DESCRIPTION:Measuring and assessing soil health is 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 present an evaluation of the economics of adopting Soil Health Management Systems developed from 125 interviews with farmers and accounting for changes in management. This presentation will focus on how financial outcomes of adopting Soil Health Management Systems compare to more conventional production practices. \nLearn more here.

SUMMARY:Microbiology/Compost Call
DESCRIPTION:Take a deeper dive into microbiology and composting! Microbially diverse compost is increasingly being recognized as an effective way to inoculate and maintain healthy soil biology. Kassie Brown of Potter Ridge Farm will give a presentation about how she looks for organisms in compost and what she found in the samples. The presentation will also include different types of compost and methods for applying that biology to large and small-scale farms. Come learn and network with fellow composters! \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Opportunities with Silvopasture: More Than Just Animals in The Woods
DESCRIPTION:Silvopasture is an agroforestry system that combines trees and forages with livestock management. Join us while we discuss the fundamentals of silvopasture and hear from landowners and professionals on their experiences in implementing silvopasture as a land management practice. \nIn addition\, learn how to use a soil health kit and about soil health training programs available to farmers and agricultural professionals in and near 9 key element watersheds through the UW-Madison Division of Extension Conservation Professional Training program. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Regenerative Carbon Neutral Beef Production
DESCRIPTION:The January Soil Health Digital Cafe will feature Dr. Jason Rowntree of Michigan State University. He is leading research on regenerative agriculture and carbon sequestration using Adaptive Multi-paddock grazing. He is looking for answers to the current debate – do cattle help or hurt the environment. He will present five years of research evaluating various grazing systems compared to two different beef feeding systems in the upper Midwest. \nLearn more here.
