In today’s episode of The Grow Down on Soil Health, we explore soil health and sustainable agriculture practices with Stefan Maupin, the executive director of the Tennessee Soybean Promotion Council. Maupin discusses what is needed to enhance cover crops in Southern states, the reasons behind the popularity of certain sustainable practices in different regions, and the role organizations play in bridging the knowledge and accessibility gap between sustainable practices and farmers.
Having grown up on his family’s row crop farm in Dyer County, Tennessee, Maupin spent over 20 years with the Tennessee Farm Bureau Federation, where he ultimately served as the director of public policy. He currently holds the position of executive director of the Tennessee Soybean Council and is part of the leadership team that oversees Tennessee’s technical advisors for Farmers for Soil Health.
This podcast is brought to you by Farmers for Soil Health in partnership with the United Soybean Board, Pork Checkoff and the National Corn Growers Association.
Farmers for Soil Health is a program created by farmers for farmers. It is committed to enhancing soil health practices, like planting cover crops, to improve the environment and farmers' profitability. Check out FarmersforSoilHealth.com for more information.
