The Easy Way to Prevent Soil Nutrient Loss

August 28, 2025

Soil loss is hitting small-scale farmers hard, but there's a natural solution that's been proven to work. Stop letting valuable nutrients wash away from your fields with the help of prairie strips. These rows of native prairie plants placed between your crop fields can dramatically reduce soil nutrient loss and protect your most valuable resource. The strategic plantings act as natural barriers, capturing runoff and keeping your soil amendments and fertilizers where they belong: feeding your crops, not flowing away.
