Join the members of CCE LOFP, CCE ENYCP, and Cornell Soil Health Program for a bilingual training on the basics of soil health, the potential benefits of mycorrhizal fungi, and an update on the current project status of our SARE grant on orchard mycorrhizal products.
The soils that we grow our trees in play a critical role in the success of our orchard's productivity. Mycorrhizal fungi provide many benefits to the soils, though it is still unclear to what extent inoculating our soils with commercial blends of these fungi may have on the growth of trees during orchard establishment.
This meeting will be hosted in both Spanish and English for farmworkers, beginning orchardists, and experienced orchard managers wanting to learn about the basics of soil health and mycorrhizal fungi within the orchard.
Light refreshments will be served at the conclusion of the meeting for an opportunity to socialize together. Registration is required, the event will be limited to 40 participants in each session.
Agenda
- 3:00 PM - The basics of orchard soil health
- (Concurrently presented in English with Dr. Deborah Aller and Spanish with Mario Miranda Sazo)
