On Thursday, April 21st, the Agriculture Committee took their first meeting of the year on the road!
Nick Ward, Chairman of the committee, invited the group to Ward Laboratories for a tour of the facility. Ward provided a tour of the new building expansion, soil sampling process, and other innovative testing equipment. He explained the process of what occurs-- once a sample is submitted, each recipient receives a health score for their soil, an interpretation guide assisting in understanding the health score, and recommendations that help improve soil fertility and crop yields.
