Groundswell Session: Can you have too Much Organic Matter?

Today, we are at Groundswell 2023, here in Hertfordshire and we're joined by Amy Watkins, sustainability manager and Steve Corbett trials manager at Agrii, Simon Weaving from Weaving Machinery and Oliver Harris who farms in Dorset. A key topic of discussion here today is around organic matter. Why is it so important, what are we trying to achieve and how do we get there? And how do we benchmark and measure our soil organic matter levels?

Listen to Tramline's #1 podcast “Digging into Soil Organic Matter” with Professor Andy Neal, Soil Microbiologist from Rothamsted, where he explores what we mean by soil organic matter and why it is so important to understand when it is influencing the availability of nutrients and water in our soils.

Tony Smith is your host on Tramlines. Based in the South West and with a farming background, he graduated with a B.Sc (Hons) Agriculture. He worked in the farming industry for many years before developing his career as a presenter.
