For this episode of the No-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Pivot Bio, we're joined by Trace Genomics co-founder, Poornima Parameswaran, who explains what Trace Genomics’ soil DNA test is able to analyze and how it can help farmers and agronomists target inputs and better understand the variables that affect crop health and yields.
