KATS Soil Properties Workshop at Meadowbrook Farm


By Blake Jackson

Eastern Kentucky University’s Meadowbrook Farm in Richmond, KY, will host the KATS Soil Properties Workshop on Thursday, April 10, 2025, from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM.

This hands-on event will provide farmers, agronomists, and soil enthusiasts with a deeper understanding of soil characteristics and their impact on agriculture.

Participants will have the opportunity to examine soil pits with varying profile properties, allowing for an in-depth discussion on how these differences affect water and nutrient retention and delivery. Understanding these factors is essential for making informed decisions about crop selection, irrigation, and fertilization strategies.

By analyzing distinct soil profiles, attendees will gain practical insights into soil structure, drainage capacity, and nutrient availability. The workshop will also cover best management practices to optimize soil health and productivity.

This event is part of the Kentucky Agricultural Training School (KATS) series, aimed at equipping producers and professionals with essential knowledge to enhance sustainable farming practices.

Farmers, agronomists, and students interested in soil science are encouraged to attend this valuable workshop. Don’t miss this opportunity to improve your soil management skills and boost your farm’s productivity!
