The South Dakota Soil Health Coalition is a hosting a two day bus tour starting Tuesday in Spink County and heading up to North Dakota. Coalition Coordinator Cindy Zenk says the first day of the tour will help participant see different crops and soil health benefits them starting with their stop in North Dakota.

She says the second day of the tour includes a stop at a South Dakota ranch where participants can see how cattle benefit the soil.

Zenk says when producers are being hampered by drought, soil health can be a real key to helping them with their crops for the next growing season.

Zenk says those interested in taking part in their bus tour can log onto their website to register.
