SUMMARY:Virtual: Improving Irrigation through Soil Health Practices
DESCRIPTION:more info / register \nImprove your understanding of how incorporating soil health principles through soil health practices can improve the efficiency of the applied irrigation by allowing for more of the irrigation water (and rainfall) to be absorbed into\, and retained within\, the soil. This is the key take-home message\, though soil health has a much broader physical\, chemical\, and biological impact on soil functions than just its water conservation potential. This webinar looks to assist planners addressing producers’ soil and water resource concerns on irrigated land. The focus is on understanding two key areas of conservation and how they interact: soil health and irrigation water management. \nRelated Files\n\nImproving Irrigation through Soil Health Principles PDF document 1351 KB The purpose of this technical note is to assist planners addressing producers’ soil and water resource concerns on irrigated land.

SUMMARY:Virtual: From Principles to Practice - A Guide to CEMA 215 In-Field Soil Health Assessment
DESCRIPTION:More info / register \nThis webinar will equip participants with the knowledge to conduct a CEMA 215 In-Field Soil Health Assessment. Attendees will learn the requirements and deliverables of the CEMA process and understand the four key soil health principles\, enabling them to apply these concepts to assess soil health effectively across land uses. \nThis webinar provides a detailed guide to the NRCS Conservation Evaluation and Monitoring Activity (CEMA) 215\, In-Field Soil Health Assessment\, and the foundational “Soil Health Principles” technical note. \nThe session will begin by breaking down the CEMA 215 document\, covering the definition of an in-field soil health assessment and its application to crop\, forest\, pasture\, and range land uses. We will detail the requirements for a Qualified Individual (QI) to perform the assessment and walk through the general and technical requirements—from the initial pre-work conference to the final summary of findings. \nThe presentation will then explore the “why” behind the assessment by delving into the USDA’s Soil Health Principles. We will discuss the four core principles. We will also highlight how the application of these principles varies across different land uses. \n  \nRelated Files\nCEMA 215 – In Field Soil Health Assessment PDF document 197 KB \nSoil Health TN 470-19 PDF document 3478 KB \nPresenters\n\nKate Glanville\, Agronomist\, NRCS-WNTSC\nJohanna Pate\, Grazing land Spec.\, NRCS (ACES)\nThomas Sauer\, Forester.
