All this talk about lime actually brings up another topic. I've been
investigating the topic of soil fertility and concentrations of various
elements, as that relates to livestock health while grazing and/or eating forage
harvested from those soils. Didn't take long for me to get into a real
alphabet soup of elements and relationships between elements and how
concentrations of this impacts that, how pH impacts the whole shebang, and why
soil test results can vary so much between seasons, between fields and between
years. Made me feel like I needed to go back to school for a few more
years just to sort out all this stuff. Assuming for the moment that a
return to full-time school is impractical, are there online courses or
continuing ed courses I can take to learn more about soil fertility, without
actually going back to University? I've been doing the several-hours
workshops thing as they are available, but that usually only whets my appetite
for more, without answering many of my existing questions. Maybe it's time
to get into that topic a little more in depth, no pun intended. Thanks in
advance......
