Kellogg Biological Station LTAR and @kbslter PhD student Grant Falvo presents Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC) data about long-term greenhouse gas emissions from variable land use types. Results suggest that replacing annual row crops with perennials has positive impacts on carbon sequestration. #ACSmtg


Great talk by Kellogg Biological Station LTAR and Kellogg Biological Station LTER scientist Christine Sprunger! Soil nematode communities respond rapidly to changes in land management and also correlate with other indicators of #soilhealth (POXC, soil protein). “How can we build a soil food web database across US LTAR” #ACSmtg


What do farmers think about specific soil health metrics? Check out our latest, led by the amazing Prabu Singh Kellogg Biological Station LTER Kellogg Biological Station LTAR MSU Plant Resilience Institute tandfonline.com/eprint/FEQX9WM…

So proud of #ethan weinrich - Longterm experiments allow exploring soil-plant-VAM interactions for phosporus cycling through organic farming management and cover crop species- students taking it the farmer with practical soil health Kellogg Biological Station LTAR #savesoil #biodiversity

When nothing is consistent about growing season weather these days, one thing that helps with consistency and stability is no-till. Over the 30 years of the Kellogg Biological Station LTER experiment, no-till has, on average, out-performed conventional tillage. brownfieldagnews.com/news/msu-30-ye… MSU Extension
