From staff reports In partnership with Certified Angus Beef, the Noble Research Institute will begin a free educational program for livestock producers.
Land Stewardship is set to launch in November, introducing producers to the six soil principles and how they work with ecosystem processes. The program will be entirely online and self-paced, allowing busy farmers and ranchers to meet their needs.
Noble Research Institute Relations Specialist Kim Leaston said the partnership with CAB highlights the organizations’ shared dedication to supporting producers in caring for the land, grazing the livestock as efficiently as possible, improving the environment, and providing a better future for communities around the country.
“The course is intended to build the foundation of what regenerative agriculture is, and then they will learn how the six soil health principles work together with the ecosystem processes,” Leaston said, adding that the program’s biggest benefit is the free course on the foundations of regenerative agriculture. Additionally, Noble offers more advanced courses for producers.
The Noble Research Institute has also partnered with ranch managing consultants Ranching for Profit to launch the Noble Profitability Essentials and the Business of Grazing courses. Producers can sign up for a course at Noble.org.
Last year Noble Research launched its first classes with Noble Land Essentials and Noble Grazing Essentials.
“We have been very busy working on courses that are filling in those gaps that producers need, helping them build up their soil health, manage their grazing, and making sure that they are profitable,” Leaston added. “Keep an eye out for our next online course to be announced in December.”
