A fantastic Field Day where you’ll learn simple ways to identify soil health. You’ll see how and whether the bugs in your soil are working for you and learn about the limiting effects of soil acidity.
There will also be a presentation of lime trial results, a visit to Peter and Jenny De Jong’s farm near Simpson to inspect a soil pit and to continue discussing the topics discussed earlier. Click on our Facebook link for bookings and more info.
