Below you will find the presentations that were given at last week’s Clean Water Summit. Because they have been reformatted they may not function the same as they did on Friday during the actual presentation. I would encourage you to contact the presentor if you have questions or thoughts about each of the presentation.

The following link will bring you to all these videos that will be posted. It is important to understand that the health of our soil has been overlooked for years and that effect is just now being realized. These videos will give you an understanding of why soil health is so important for your farm but also why it is important for clean water, crop production, and sustainable production.
