To all,
An excellent popular article published in the Minneapolis Star Tribune on
Sunday, December 17, 2017 on agricultural sustainability and soil health.
It highlights the importance of the farmers using minimum soil disturbance
and cover crop mixes, emphasis on input from the consumer, emphasis on
collaboration with the “food giants”, and shows the importance of educating
the policy folks on the benefits of soil health. Copy either of the links
below and paste into your browser to access the complete article on the
Internet.
