Decoding Carbon and Ecosystem Services

Sinking carbon in agricultural soil could be a powerful tool in our toolbox to decrease carbon in the atmosphere. But how do you get carbon from the atmosphere into the soil? And once it’s there, how do you keep it there? Dr. Jerry Hatfield, retired Laboratory Director and Plant physiologist for the USDA Agricultural Research Service, is here with the answers. Jerry talks us through the agricultural practices that bulk up soil carbon stocks, how you keep it there, and the impacts we can have. Want to learn more? Check out our website, decode6.org.
