AgEmerge Podcast 157 with Dr. Ganga Hettiarachchi and Dr. Charles Rice at Kansas State University
Two soil science powerhouses from Kansas State University: Dr. Ganga Hettiarachchi and Dr. Charles Rice explore a fundamental but often overlooked question—are all soil nutrients the same?
The simple answer, no. Not all nutrients are created equal. The source matters. The form matters. And the way nutrients interact with soil minerals, microbes, and organic matter? It’s a whole other level of complexity.
We also talk about carbon—how it moves, how it’s stored, and how it could be the key to building resilient soils that thrive for generations.
