Farmer Podcast Club: Meet the Prairie Precision Sustainability Network

Enjoy listening to this Farmer Podcast Club episode.

In this month’s podcast club release, we are tuning into a May 2025 episode of the Restoring the Margins series, produced in partnership with the Prairie Precision Sustainability Network (PPSN). Dr. Christy Morrissey, a professor at the University of Saskatchewan and a lead researcher with the PPSN looks at ways Prairie farmers can make their marginal lands more productive and sustainable.

 

From the show notes: “Dr. Morrissey walks us through the PPSN project; a prairies-wide project that uses satellite imagery combined with yield and profit data to help identify marginal lands, with the goal of supporting producers to restore them. Together, we explore how restoring these lands can be a win-win: helping producers improve their bottom line while also supporting biodiversity and the environment.”

If you’re interested in making your farm more profitable and environmentally beneficial, this episode is for you!
