Soil health and structure in the Ouse Catchment

How good are your soils? Field and laboratory evaluation of soil health - Ian Knight, Abacus Agriculture
Ian Knight has been working with farmers in the Ouse Catchment and will be discussing baseline soil structure and chemistry with the group, focusing on Ouse soils. With soil health and testing forming a central part of the new Sustainable Farming Incentive, understanding your soils has become even more important. 

A Billion reasons why you should know how healthy your soil biology is! - Nick Cooper, Farmyard Ltd
Nick Cooper will be taking a look at how healthy soil biology influences nutrient recycling, and improves water retention and drainage whilst increasing carbon capture in your soils. Linked to your soil structure is the community of organisms that make up the structure and work in symbiosis with crops. Understanding the biology of your soils can help you get the most out of them.
