Jadey and Adam from the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) will demo a suite of decision support tools developed through the Washington Soil Health Initiative. The talk will highlight practical, field-ready resources such as Dirt Data Reports and a growing set of nutrient management tools, including the Deep Soil Sampling Visualization. These tools are designed to support data-informed conservation planning and producer engagement, and ultimately, to save your conservation district (CD) time and money by automating and optimizing workflows.
The second half of the session will shift to a facilitated planning session for what WSDA should build next. Participants are encouraged to come prepared with ideas for CD workflows that could be automated, data gaps that hinder their work, or new tools that would help CDs more effectively reach producers and implement conservation practices on the ground.
