Improving Irrigation through Soil Health Practices (Web-based)
To help incorporate soil health practices into irrigation planning to increase conservation benefits and meet producer objectives To improve 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) 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.
