Soil Health Study: LC1256

A Strong Montana from the Ground Up

The Montana Soil Health Subcommittee Bill will appoint a soil health task force to explore how the state can promote and support farming and ranching methods that improve the health of our soils and the yield and profitability of our agricultural lands. By establishing a task force, Montana can identify soil health priorities and ensure limited federal, state, and private resources are most effectively directed to help farmers and ranchers strengthen Montana’s soil foundation. Key components of the bill include:

Diverse Task Force

Public Involvement

Research and Assessment
