It was a real pleasure to present our work on the InBestSoil project, as well as demo our bespoke farm benchmarking app, at the Bundesamt für Landwirtschaft BLW in Bern this morning. Thank you very much Bernard Belk and Markus Wildisen for the invitation. Christian Grovermann and I very much enjoyed the opportunity to talk with you and your teams, and took a lot away with us from the engaging discussions with all of those who were present. There were great ideas shared for how to move forward with the app and also many interesting ideas for digging deeper into the topic of soil health in our future research. We will be sure to keep you informed as to how we progress! Forschungsinstitut für biologischen Landbau FiBL Bundesamt für Landwirtschaft BLW InBestSoil #InBestSoil #SoilHealth #FutureFarming
