Soil Health Principles in Iowa with Dr. Marshall McDaniel and Hillary Olson | Field, Lab, Earth #145

Soil health principles can help guide farmers in best practices for long term soil health and improvement.

In this episode of the Field, Lab, Earth podcast, we discuss discuss testing the soil health principles in Iowa and how this might be expanded into further regions.
