Land Management Resources

Dr. Frank Larnery compares soils and crop management in Akmola province, Kazakhstan with cropping in the black soil zone of Alberta.

Dr. Roland Kroebel outines where ecosystem modeling for agriculture is moving in a presentation to the 50th Alberta Soil Science Workshop. Starting with a GHG calculator, HOLOS, Dr. Kroebel proposes adding a number of other models, for carbon, soil moisture, nitrogen and environmental footprints to create a "Virtual Farm" concept.

At the 2013 Alberta Soil Science Workshop, Rob Dunn introduced the work beginning on a conservation offset pilot in SE Alberta.

Dr. Ross McKenzie makes the case that the relationship between soil science researchers and agricultural producers (something we used to call extension or technology transfer) was a vibrant pipeline for innovation in Alberta.

This set of presentations will introduce you to the wide range of research topics currently being undertaken by the ABMI. Speakers present the state-of-the-science and discuss the implications for Alberta’s land-use managers and policy makers.
