Practical Approaches to Building Soil Health on Rangelands

Perryton, TX Perryton, TX

Ranchers on unirrigated pastures have traditionally had limited options for large-scale tools that affect soil health. Emerging research suggests that using materials like compost and biochar (a charcoal-like substance made from waste wood) may be as effective for holding soil moisture and protecting the surface from erosion as bale grazing is known to be. However, we know that not every area responds the same way to management practices. Join us to be part of setting up a new demonstration site at a ranch owned by a New Agrarian Program alum in the Texas panhandle to compare these practices side-by-side.
