Berkeley Agroecology Lab @ESPM_berkeley. Our work focuses on #soilhealth, ecosystem services, rhizosphere ecology & #climatechange mitigation & adaptation

And thank you to the @OrganicCenter for funding! We need more studies on cover cropping in organic systems.

[Berkeley Agroecology Lab @bowleslab]

Our paper on how #covercrops jointly affect soil carbon and crop yields is out in @naturesustainab! https://t.co/ua86f5UWXv First authored by former undergraduate in our lab, Isaac Vendig, along with @soilsandbees @KenzoEsquivel @lcponisio @allegra_mayer & Gisel De La Cerda

Thanks especially to the first author, Isaac, who stuck with this study tenaciously during the pandemic after he finished his undergraduate senior thesis in our lab in 2019.

On this #EarthDay2022 let's "shift our gaze from the brilliant stars above to the humble ground below" - https://t.co/dFFUATFtXU, thanks to @The_Soil_Life for reminding us that #Soil is Alive and Soil is Life!

We are proud too! What a rich interdisciplinary collaboration looking at how tipping points in adoption patterns of diversified farming systems emerge: farmers make forward looking decisions but ecosystems can be slow to respond

Proud to be part of this collaboration!https://t.co/JrfBNB8VCN

Our new paper out today in @JAppliedEcology suggests that conserving habitat around farms can support bird conservation, mitigate food safety risks, and decrease crop damage from birds.
