“Soil Health Cycle” with Dr. Bijesh Maharjan

Researchers, advisers, and farmers alike know that soil health is important, but taking steps forward in the knowledge of which practices to use and their impacts can be difficult. Enter the soil health cycle, an iterative approach to help track how practices and their implementation take soil health forward. In this episode, Bijesh joins me to discuss his work on the soil health cycle.

Tune in to learn:

·         How the soil health cycle is similar to human health care cycles

·         What the four steps of the soil health cycle are

·         Why it’s important to have a soil health cycle

·         What the literature says about the current state of the soil health cycle
