Best Management Practices for Soil Health

Healthy soil is the foundation of productive and resilient farmland. Join Owen Ricker, Farmer Engagement and Research Liaison for the Ontario Soil & Crop Association, for an introduction to practical, science-based approaches to improving soil health, including techniques such as drone-seeded cover crops, cover crop grazing, and nitrogen inhibitors. Participants will gain valuable insights into how these practices support crop yields, water retention, and climate resilience, while contributing to long-term agricultural sustainability.

Join the Ontario Farmland Trust in a series of free online webinars to explore pressures on farmland, learn about solutions, and share innovative ideas. There will be a new topic each month, and we will be joined by professionals from across Ontario, including land-use planners, lawyers, conservation organizations, and more. Join us over your lunch break from the comfort of your home, field or office.
