Proposed places to start in 2008:

2.    Work with industry associations to provide self-evaluation processes for producers to move toward above-mentioned practices, and help producers realize the economic value of having soil that is healthy and high in organic matter using existing educational channels. coop. ext., workshops, newsletters, etc.
