Webinar: Using Kelp as Fertilizer
Erin Oliver, a postdoctoral researcher with Washington State University and a USDA Climate Hub Fellow for Alaska Agriculture stationed in Palmer, will discuss lab and field studies conducted at Matanuska Experiment Farm to investigate the effects of kelp on soil health and crop production in a free webinar.
Kelp shows great promise for improving soil health and crop production in Alaska. Potential benefits include increased nutrient availability, improved soil pH, increased seed germination rates, and increased crop biomass.
Using Alaska-grown kelp in agricultural soils provides both economic benefits for the mariculture industry and an alternative to commercial, inorganic fertilizers produced outside of Alaska. Studies have found that the benefits of kelp vary by soil type and amendment rates, but little research has been done in Alaska on this subject.
The goal of this project is to determine the best method for applying kelp to Alaska soils. This talk will discuss both lab and field studies…
