Digging into the margins: How precision agriculture can restore unproductive land for biodiversity, soil health and profitability – Online
March 4 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Marginal cropland is often defined as low yielding unprofitable areas in fields that can be targeted for restoration to perennial grasses. Our team is working with farmers across the prairies to map marginal land using predictive yield models, then plant these areas with tame and native forages in order to study the sustainability benefits over time.
