Question Title

I am a beginning soil health farmer (limited experience- 1 or 2 years- experimenting with regenerative soil health practices, such as cover crops, reduced tillage or other variable rate technology).

I am an intermediate soil health farmer (consistently using soil health practices like multi-species cover crops, reduced/no-till, variable rate technology, etc.) with some 3-7 years of experimenting with regenerative soil health practices.

I am an advanced soil health farmer (using a complete soil health management system with multiple integration of practices such as no-till/reduced tillage, cover crops, advanced nutrient management, crop rotation, etc.) with more than 10 years utilizing regenerative soil health practices.

I am not using soil health practices.
