Recently, the Noble Research Institute announced the release of a free educational program for livestock producers for which they partnered with Certified Angus Beef. The program introduces the six soil health principles and how they work with the ecosystem processes. Land Stewardship, set to launch in November 2024, will be accessible worldwide entirely online and self-paced to meet the needs of busy farmers and ranchers.

Farm Director KC Sheperd caught up with Noble Research Institute Public Relations Specialist Kim Leaston. According to Leaston, the partnership with CAB highlights the organizations’ shared dedication to supporting producers in caring for the land and grazing livestock in the best way possible to ensure better production, improve the environment, and provide a better future for their communities around the country.

“The course is intended to build the foundation of what regenerative agriculture is, and then they will learn how the six soil health principles work together with the ecosystem processes,” Leaston said.

She added that the biggest benefit to producers who take the course will be being able to take a free course in the foundations of regenerative agriculture. Noble also offers advanced courses for producers who want to delve deeper.

In addition to this course, the Noble Research Institute has also partnered with ranch managing consultants Ranching For Profit (RFP) to launch the Noble Profitability Essentials and the Business of Grazing courses.

Interested producers can sign up for a course at Noble.org. Leaston explained, “On the top, righthand side of your screen, click Find A Course. There you can find all the available courses, and their locations, dates, and times.”

The Noble Research Institute launched its first classes in 2023 with Noble Land Essentials and Noble Grazing Essentials. “We have been very busy working on courses that are filling in those gaps that producers need. Helping them build up their soil health, manage their grazing, and making sure that they are profitable,” Leaston added. “Keep an eye out for our next online course to be announced in December.”
