NACD is pleased to invite you to the summer Soil Health Forum and Conservation Tour, July 21-22, in Indianapolis, Indiana (with NACD Board Meetings July 19-20). As part of the meeting, NCDEA will also be offering a soil health technical training session for district and NRCS employees on July 23.

The tour, forum and training will be held in conjunction with NACD partners NRCS, EPA and the Indiana Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts (IASWCD). Participants will select from several farm tours highlighting on-the-ground conservation practices in part supported by USDA Farm Bill and EPA 319 programs. Dow Agrosciences will host the NACD Board of Directors meeting on July 19.

On Monday, we’ll hear from a variety of speakers, including a panel of farmers, on the topic of soil health. On Tuesday, attendees will participate in one of several soil-health focused tours.

 

The NACD Soil Health Forum and Conservation Tour is an excellent opportunity to learn more about NACD, NRCS, and state soil health outreach efforts! For the latest information on the agenda, tours, hotel, local attractions and to register, visit: nacdnet.org/events/summer2014.
