Today we review some fascinating examples of advancing soil health. One individual farmer interested in these new practices will find a lot of obstacles to being successful. Most of the farmers we have interviewed have formed collaborations with other farmers, worked with an independent agronomist, and communicated with research and extension professionals. Collaborations can\u2019t be forced. It takes honesty and passion for achieving an end goal. These collaborations often foster deeper relationships.

\u201cIt's fun. It seems like every day, we can talk about something new and exciting\u2026..It\u2019s made farming fun in my eyes.\u201d - Tyler Zimmerman (Season 2: Episode 4)

\u201cFinding this information, seeing the yield, seeing the variability is what led to \u201cboy, can we manage this?\u201d And I have to say so far in my experience. Yes, you can.\u201d - Anthony Thilmony (Season 1: Episode 3 and Episode 4)

\u201cWe\u2019d field a lot of questions together, and you know what he didn\u2019t know I\u2019d know and vice versa and it just seemed like we got a good working relationship that way\u201d - Tim Becker (Season 2: Episode 1)

\u201cI know farmers that have the attitude of, I\u2019m not going to share with my neighbor, but I feel I\u2019d teach everybody that you know because our neighbor is not the guy who is going to take us out in this whole game. It\u2019s going to be something bigger like mother nature or the banker.\u201d - Mark Olson (Season 2: Episode 8)

\u201cThe important thing is that those three circles overlap and there\u2019s interaction among those three groups that is I think really powerful and finding these transformational sort of solutions that we need in agriculture.\u201d - Mark Liebig (Season 2: Episode 13 and Episode 14)

\u201cWhat you need to do is find the passionate people and get them to leave \u201cme\u201d at the door and get \u201cwe.\u201d And we start doing things together....it\u2019s all about bringing interested people together and multiplying your effect.\u201d - Brad Brummond (Season 2: Episode 12)
