Abstract
The researchers studied how landowners and farmers are working to improve conservation and protect productivity, soil health and water quality while facing extreme weather. The project results yielded more future research questions than definitive answers as to how non-owner landlords and their tenants can work together to safeguard the land and its productivity.
