Healthy Soils Initiative

The Healthy Soils Initiative is a program focused on improving soil quality to support sustainable agriculture and environmental health. It encourages practices like crop rotation, cover cropping, and reducing chemical use to boost soil organic matter, enhance water retention, and increase carbon storage. Healthy soils promote more productive farms, help prevent erosion, and reduce greenhouse gases, benefiting ecosystems and climate stability. Overall, it aims to build resilient, nutrient-rich soils that sustain food production while protecting natural resources.
