Playa wetlands benefit from practices that result in good soil health.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service says there are four principles to improving soil health: 1) keep soil covered as much as possible; 2) disturb the soil as little as possible; 3) keep plants growing throughout the year to feed the soil; and 4) diversify as much as possible using crop rotation and cover crops.
This Playa Country episode begins a four-part series on soil health. I originally aired on HPPR 7/15/14.
