The Oklahoma Conservation Commission is working to improve soil health around the state.
Farmers and ranchers can receive up to $40,000 over three years to put soil health practices in place through the Oklahoma Conservation Commission’s Soil Health Implementation Program.
The initiative will collect data to improve the state’s soil health database and conduct educational outreach.
Conservation methods like no-till and grazing management are common practices used to help overall soil health and erosion. The commission’s soil health director, Greg Kloxin, said the goal is to emulate the natural landscape.
