This Spring into early Summer, Scottish farmers have been challenged by the elements. The land has gone from dry to extremely wet to dry in a matter of weeks. How do we learn to adapt to these challenging conditions? Many of the answers lie beneath our feet with soil structure and soil biology influencing water retention. Ray Archuleta is a Certified Professional Soil Scientist with the Soil Science Society of America. Ray founded Understanding Ag, LLC, and Soil Health Academy to teach Biomimicry strategies and Agroecology principles for improving soil function on a national scale. By applying the principles of regenerative agriculture in Scotland, farmers can emulate the natural biology and systems to improve soil functionality, reduce inputs and improve profitability.
