The Washington State Soil Health Initiative, with support from Western Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education, is proud to announce that SoilCon is returning in 2022. This virtual conference will bring research, extension, and production together to discuss soil health parameters at a local, regional, and global scale. The conference will be held February 22^nd & 23^rd, with sessions from 8:00am-12:00pm PST each day.

Soil health is a trending topic in agricultural production and environmental resilience to climate change, but what does the latest research tell us and how can we put it into practice for regional systems? SoilCon aims to address these questions by explaining what metrics are used when assessing soil health, how these may change by production system and region, and management practices to support a resilient soil system. The topics will be relevant to agriculture or natural resource professionals, producers, consultants, University faculty and students, and interested members of the public.

All sessions will be held online February 22^nd & 23^rd, 8:00am-12:00pm PST. Stay updated with WSU Soil Health SoilCon through their website, soilhealth.wsu.edu, or through Twitter and Instagram @WSU_SoilHealth.
