We continue to learn more about soil health each year. We know that the organic matter in soil provides the main reservoir of nutrients that feed plants. We know the amount of organic matter affects soil's water holding capacity and water availability to plants. And we know that increasing soil organic matter from 1 to 3 percent can reduce erosion 20+%. But how realistic are your yearly goals on building organic matter? It's difficult to be patient, but the data supports the use of no-til, cover crops AND using manure over time. Slow and steady is still great progress!
