Extension Soil Erosion Article Comes to the Honors Classroom

Author: John Grove

Planning Unit: Plant and Soil Sciences

Major Program: Water and Soil Quality and Conservation

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

In September 2023, Brad Lee and I authored an article (https://www.kygrains.info/blog/2023/9/14/soil-health-erosion-and-fall-field-management) on soil health, soil erosion, and the management needed to minimize erosion in the face of climate change. The article was chosen as background reading on soil erosion for UKC 180 (10 Ways to Think About Climate Change in Kentucky) by the instructors (Drs. Lauren Cagle and Alice Turkington). Brad was invited to join the students, answering questions as they discussed the subject. Extension materials are good for both young and adult learners.
