Healthy Soils

This month’s episode of Agronomy Matters is hosted by Thomas Vaughan, the recently appointed Environment Manager for BASIS.  Thomas is joined by two experts who share their wealth of knowledge in soil health and environmental management.   

The first guest, a previous podcast host, Jade Prince, a seasoned soil expert, now works at Farmacy, part of Hutchinson’s.  Jade has been instrumental in working with BASIS, designing the course content for the new “Improving Soil Health” course series.   

Jade will be sharing some of her invaluable expertise on the subject, providing practical steps that can be taken to assess and manage soil up until the end of the year.  

The second guest, Teresa Meadows, the Head of Environment, Audit, and Public Affairs at BASIS, has played a pivotal role in developing the four soil series modules:  
 
“Creating a Soil Management Plan”  
“Increasing Soil Biology”  
“Improving Soil Structure”  
“Boosting Soil Organic Matter”   

Teresa provides us with a comprehensive overview of what the courses entail, their target audience, their connections to other courses, and a tantalising glimpse into the future courses that lie ahead.
