SUMMARY:Soil Management Summit
DESCRIPTION:This summit (formerly Conservation Tillage Conference) emphasizes proven farmer experience and applied science. Straight from the fields\, learn how heavier\, colder soils aren’t necessarily the challenge they’re made out to be. Hear from long-time no-till\, reduced tillage\, and cover crop farmers as they share their experiences\, so you can be spared the same hard-learned lessons. \nThe Summit features presentations and Q&A with researchers\, farmers and agricultural advisors\,  information from sponsors\, and conversations with farmers experienced in different soil health practices. \nAttendees who attend the entire conference will be offered CCA continuing education units (CEUs). \nThis Summit will be held online.
