The California Department of Food and Agriculture is awarding $28 million dollars for agricultural land managers to implement healthy soil practices through the Healthy Soils Incentive Program. There are a total of 28 healthy soil practices; including cover crops, compost application, hedgerows, mulching, silvopasture, and many more.  The request for applications is anticipated to open in late February or early March.
