Healthy soil, healthy planet.

On the latest episode of The Cultivo Podcast, host Sean Leslie speaks with soil scientist Mary Cvetkovic-Jones, PhD, about the importance of healthy soil, and the carbon sequestration and other ecosystem services provided by grasslands, landscapes that account for 40% of the world’s terrestrial surface.

Mary explains:

• Why a healthy planet depends on healthy soil.
• Soil’s ability to pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and “lock” it into organic matter.
• Why grasslands are often overlooked when it comes to carbon sequestration.
• How rotational grazing practices can improve the health of grassland ecosystems.
• And much, much more.
