| Courses and Presentations on Soil Fertility Management | ||||
Wish to learn more about successful soil fertility management?
Higher yields, lower costs, fewer pest and disease problems, and
irrigation savings are reported effects of 'feeding the soil and not the plant'.
In response to demand from growers and consultants who want to learn
more about the benefits of our program, we offer short courses periodically
during the year. These courses are based on the Albrecht principles of
soil-based fertility management, and are at 'introductory' and 'advanced' level.
In addition to the public seminars, we can also conduct private training
sessions tailored to meet the specific needs of your organization.
