Here are two great instructors that you will learn from at the Healthy Soil Summit:
John Kempf
Needed: A New Agronomy Based on Living Soil
John Kempf, an entrepreneur, farmer, and industry-leading consultant, will show you why a new type of agronomy is needed to help today’s farmers and ranchers. John will question why our current model does not consider any possible contributions of soil biology and assumes a “dead soil.”
