Workshop Content
As growers, when we fail to understand and work with soil carbon 
influencing factors (SCIF) then our seemingly good practices can result 
in unnecessary soil carbon release.
However, when we understand and work with these influencing factors, 
bringing them into our growing systems, then we can grow crops in ways 
which enrich and build soil. The need for inputs and work load is 
significantly reduced as are climate changing and other pollutants.

10 to 11.30 a.m. Interactive SCIF theory session.
11.30 to 12 Tea, chat and questions.
