Part five of five videos from the day.
Six months of soil carbon sampling and analysis are presented back to the cluster by researchers from Rothamsted and Carbon Quester, with guest speakers and experts from Natural England, NFU, Oxbury Bank, Trinity Ag Tech and Downforce. The conference supported our understanding of how we use the data and next steps.
The Soil Carbon Baselining project, funded by FiPL, took samples from 36 farms across 15,000 hectares on 22 different soil types and a spectrum of crops, management systems and local ground conditions. The data from 1,300 samples are reported back and broken down to show where the opportunities exist to improve our soil carbon - and soil health.
