Healthy Soils Field Day: Effects of Vermicompost on Soil & Crops
January 11, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Free
Join us at Turkovich Walnut Orchard to learn about the impact of vermicompost (worm poop!) on crops and soils.
For the past 2 years, we’ve been applying vermicompost generated from BioFiltro’s worm powered water treatment systems to crops and soils. Hydrofocus, Inc and the project team at the University of California, Davis are studying the impact on soil health and greenhouse gas emissions. We are investigating the potential for integrating vermicompost into standard agricultural practices to improve soil health and sustainably increase harvestable yield of crops.
Please join us at our upcoming Field Day to learn about the impact of vermicompost (worm poop!) on crops and soils.
Speakers include:
William Horwath, UCD Biogeochemist, Patrick Beckett from BioFiltro,
Veronica Suarez Romero, graduate student researcher at UCD, and more!
Presentations will be held in a barn protected from the elements, and refreshments will be provided.
Event is free and open to the public, but please RSVP so we can accommodate accordingly.
