Soil health innovation leader MyLand is launching a new Educational Hub in collaboration with Texas A&M AgriLife Research, featuring six online courses designed to educate individuals on the importance of soil health.
The Educational Hub will offer courses that address critical soil health topics, including:
1. Introduction to Soil Health
2. Chemical Traits of Soil
3. Physical Traits of Soil
3. Biological Traits of Soil
4. Saline and Sodic Soils
5. Soil Testing
The first course, “Introduction to Soil Health,” is now available with the remaining courses to follow. Each course will be open to anyone with an interest in learning about optimal soil health — from growers and ranchers to educators and environmental advocates.
The collaboration between MyLand and Texas A&M AgriLife Research is aimed at advancing agriculture and addressing global challenges. This statewide initiative focuses on soil health across 12,000 acres of commercial farmland, covering over 20 unique crops. By researching MyLand’s impact on water availability, salinity, nutrient use efficiency, and carbon cycling, the partnership seeks to improve both the quality of life and economic returns for farmers and communities.
