The soil that we need to grow food and fiber is in more danger than people realize! The steady degradation of soil worldwide is almost invisible because of widespread practices of tillage that we now understand makes the life of the microbes that support plants very miserable. Who knew? Fortunately renewal and resilience is possible, necessary, and urgently needed. This discussion will focus on action steps everyone can take immediately to work the levers of change.
Dr. Jean Eells works from the prairie pothole region of north central Iowa, and partners closely with her tenant to care for the family farmland. She has operated E Resources Group, LLC, since 1997 and led the movement to reach women farmland owners with conservation information across the nation after obtaining her Ph.D. from Iowa State University in 2008.
In 2021, Eells won Conservation Professional of the Year from the International Soil and Water Conservation Society, Conservationist of the Year from the National Professional Organization of Women in NRCS, and Iowa Woman Conservationist from the Conservation Districts of Iowa and the NRCS Federal Women’s Program in Iowa.
