Soil Health Videos
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.

IOWATER Watershed Sampling for Dickinson County
Below see the the IOWATER Watershed Sampling Report for Dickinson County for the years 2003 to 2008. The samples come from volunteers who monitor select sites on our Dickinson County water bodies. These monitoring sites were selected to provide the best data that tells us the overall quality of our water. The volunteers are dedicated and a great deal of thanks goes out to all who have helped in this endeavor.
