Healthy Soils: The Foundation of Today’s Agriculture

By Richard Jones, Corporate Content Director, Meister Media Worldwide

If you have had a conversation about agricultural production in the last year, it seems likely that it included terms like “soil health,” “microbiome,” or “regenerative agriculture.”And with good reason. Of all of the subjects we have covered over the past year in Meister Media Worldwide’s Global Insight Series focused on sustainability in agriculture, few topics have been hotter than soil health. From an improved understanding about the benefits it provides to growers and their crops, to increased scrutiny and interest from regulators and the general public on sustainable production methods, it’s easy to see why there’s so much focus on building a solid foundation with our soils.With that in mind, we built this latest Global Insight Series Report, Soil Health, around some of the most recent developments happening across agriculture, including both the specialty and row crop areas.

In this report, you’ll learn about:

Insights on the State of Soil Health in agriculture from experts in nutrient management, biologicals, amendments, and soil testing
Techniques specialty crop growers are using to replace chemical fumigants
A look at the focus regenerative agriculture is gaining with companies in the U.S. and globally
The critical role of testing in building a healthy soil profile
Steps cotton growers are taking to enhance their soil health practices

The interactive format of our unique digital platform allows you to read analysis and information provided by our expert contributors, and also hear directly from them through video insights. And we’ve included a quick guide to help walk you through the ins and outs of navigating this digital report — just watch the brief "How to Use this Report" video at the beginning of this article.This report is the fifth in Meister Media’s new Global Insight Series of publications. Previous installments have explored developments in Biological Crop Protection,  Irrigation Technology and Agricultural Technology, and an expanded series of reports and other digital content will be launching in 2023.As always, we appreciate your feedback on these reports and your suggestions on future topics you’d like to see covered. We look forward to hearing from you!
