MyLand and Texas A&M AgriLife Research launch a collaborative Educational Hub on soil health

MyLand, a leader in soil health innovation, announced the launch of a new Educational Hub in collaboration with Texas A&M AgriLife Research, a leading Texas research agency in agriculture, natural resources, and life sciences.

The Education Hub will feature six online courses designed to educate individuals on the importance of soil health. Each will include expert contributions from both MyLand and Texas A&M AgriLife Research.

The Educational Hub will offer courses that address critical soil health topics, including:

1. Introduction to Soil Health

2. Chemical Traits of Soil

3. Physical Traits of Soil

4. Biological Traits of Soil

5. Saline and Sodic Soils

6. Soil Testing

The first course, ″Introduction to Soil Health,″ is now available with the remaining courses to follow. Each course will be open to anyone with an interest in learning about optimal soil health — from growers and ranchers to educators and environmental advocates.

″Our collaboration with Texas A&M AgriLife Research represents an exciting step forward in making soil health knowledge accessible to a broad audience,″ said Dane Hague, Co-founder and CEO of MyLand. ″Soil health is the foundation of sustainable agriculture, and by offering these courses, we are equipping individuals with the knowledge they need to support healthier ecosystems.″

The subject matter experts from MyLand and Texas A&M AgriLife Research Center include professors, researchers, and Certified Crop Advisors.

″Texas A&M AgriLife Research has long been committed to advancing soil health practices,″ said G. Cliff Lamb, director of AgriLife Research. ″This collaboration with MyLand allows us to bring our world-class expertise to a wider audience. These courses will empower people to make informed decisions about land management and soil conservation.″

The Educational Hub is part of a collaboration between MyLand and Texas A&M AgriLife Research, aimed at advancing agriculture and addressing global challenges. This statewide initiative focuses on soil health across 12,000 acres of commercial farmland, covering over 20 unique crops. By researching MyLand’s impact on water availability, salinity, nutrient use efficiency, and carbon cycling, the partnership seeks to improve both the quality of life and economic returns for farmers and communities.

The Educational Hub will be a dynamic virtual resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of soil health and contribute to the improvement of agricultural practices across the globe.
