Planning a Soil Health Management System: Healthy Soils for Sustainable Cotton Webinar

In episode seven of the Healthy Soils for Sustainable Cotton webinar series, David Lamm teaches us about planning a soil health management system and discusses the key indicators and regenerative systems for soil health. He introduces soil health promoting practices and activities, identifies which of these are key to developing a soil health management system, and describes their interactions, dependencies and synergies. He also offers insight to the potential barriers of implementing a soil health management system. Mr. Lamm is a Project Manager for the Healthy Soils for Sustainable Cotton project, a soil health training and education program that seeks to increase adoption of soil health management practices among cotton producers by building a network of farmer mentors and soil health technical specialists. The Healthy Soils for Sustainable Cotton webinar series will allow viewership and participation in soil health training for cotton producers who were unable to attend the training field day workshops or advanced trainings. The goal of the project is to quantify, expand and verify the productivity and environmental benefits of the soil management systems used by cotton producers. Healthy Soils for Sustainable Cotton is supported through the generosity of the Wrangler® brand, the VF Corporation Foundation, and the Walmart Foundation.
