“We believe that while at times we have felt the overshadowing presence of oil, we are living in an area that is essentially agricultural. This is easily realized when one takes the time to remember that the land must continue to provide for our food, clothing, and shelter, long after the oil is gone . . . .”
-Lloyd Noble

EDUCATION
Reawaken the public to
the importance of soil
health.
RESEARCH
Convene the
research community
to advance soil
health.
MEASUREMENT
Incorporate soil health
measures into standardized
soil testing that is readily
available, affordable, and
commercially viable.
$ ECONOMICS
Quantify the effects of
soil health on
economic risks and
returns.
Initiated in 2013, Farm
Foundation, NFP and the
Noble Foundation initiated
the Soil Renaissance to
advance soil health and
make soil health the
cornerstone of land use
management decisions.

Mission
Reawaken the public to the importance of
soil health for enhancing healthy,
profitable and sustainable natural
resource systems.
Initial Findings
• Ongoing response
and participation
excellent
• Clear need to expand
mandate for long term
impact
• Show value and
participation will
follow “We know more about the movement of
celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot.”

Summary Findings
• Interest in and awareness of the need to
focus on soil health is strong
• Soil Renaissance voluntary participation
continued to expand, reinforcing this need
• Several industry-led initiatives exist, but they
are fragmented and lack connection
• To advance the soil health conversation, the
Renaissance needs to evolve

What is Soil Health?
The continued capacity of the soil to function
as a vital, living ecosystem that sustains
plants, animals and humans.

– Several initiatives on many fronts.
– Cover crop acres to expand dramatically. 20M acres by 2020. More?
– Improved cultivar development underway
• As the biology of the soil changes, so will farming practices. What are some of the impacts?
What’s on the road ahead?.. Key Thoughts

As I look around at the strides that have been made in our research laboratories, as I look at the things undreamed of a few years ago…the only degree to which we have reached the end of the road of opportunity is the degree to which we have exhausted the imaginative capacity of the human mind.
