Soil is a living and life-giving substance, without which we would
perish. As world population and food production demands rise,
keeping our soil healthy and productive is of paramount importance. So
much so that we believe improving the health of our Nation’s soil is one
of the most important endeavors of our time.
By focusing attention on soil health and by educating our customers and
the public about the positive impact healthy soils can have on
productivity and conservation, we can help our Nation’s farmers and
ranchers feed the world more profitably and sustainably – now and for
generations to come.
Soil Health resources are designed to help visitors understand the
basics and benefits of soil health – and to learn about Soil Health
Management Systems from farmers who are using those systems. So
whether you’re a farmer, a researcher, a conservationist or an
interested citizen, the information on this site will help you “Unlock
the Secrets in the Soil.”
