The purpose of this report is to develop an action framework to increase adoption of soil health management practices. We believe that improving the health of soils across the state means a more stable, financially sound, and productive agricultural sector; healthier lakes, streams and groundwater; better habitat; more carbon storage; and opportunities for flood mitigation through more dispersed water storage. This document is a framework of desired outcomes, metrics, strategies, and actions, intended to be used by diverse interests to guide their planning for advancing soil health. The document resulted from meetings of an advisory group representing diverse interests from both the public and private sector.
