Training Description:
(Time: 1:47:00) This webinar will give participants an overview of soil health and new soil testing tools for N-P-K that take into account the contribution of soil microbes, allowing producers to make informed nutrient management decisions, and it includes a discussion of the USDA NRCS Soil Health Nutrient Tool Project.
Participants will learn how soil microbes control nutrient availability to plants, and how management can influence this dynamic. The importance of carbon in the soil ecosystem, C:N ratios, limitations of traditional soil tests, and new methods for measuring the contribution of soil microbes to nutrient availability and cycling will be discussed.
