ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, we visit with Naeem Kalwar, soil health specialist at the NDSU Langdon Research Extension Center in North Dakota.
Naeem tells the story of growing up in Pakistan, where his father was an agronomy professor and his uncles farmed in a nearby village.
Today, Naeem helps to lead soil health initiatives in North Dakota.
Listen to our conversation to learn more about the principles of soil health, the fascinating biology and chemistry of soil, and how our own cultural histories can be told through the history of our soils.
The podcast is supported by a generous grant from the ND Natural Resources Trust.
Thanks to Crista Fiala for producing today's episode and to Matthew Connolly for producing the theme music.
We hope you enjoy this episode of Common Ground: A Prairie Podcast.
