Regenerative Soil Health with Niels Corfield - EP 14

Later this year, Soil expert Niels Corfield is partnering with FarmED for a series of regenerative soil health courses - for arable, livestock farmers and veg growers - and here he talks to Programme Coordinator, Edd Colbert about the importance of soil health. He explains how ‘mismanaged soil and ecosystems have created economic issues as a product of ecological decline, but the good news is that we have tangible tools to reverse this’. Niels and Edd discuss the seven principles of soil health, including aggregation or crumb structure, visual indications and ways to minimise chemical inputs and how healthy soil leads to healthy plants which are less susceptible to pests. He talks about the content of the courses and how practitioners will be shown new ways of monitoring ‘reading your land and understanding what it’s telling you,’ shifting away from lab testing and getting into the habit of simply and cheaply gathering consistent data - the basis of any regenerative approach.

Niels is also partnering with us for an agroforestry design masterclass and talks about this ancient practice and how integrating trees onto farms is beneficial for soil.
