No change in soil OM after sand topdressing just once in a year, with Andrew McDaniel

Total organic material by depth (#OM246) measurements have been made at Keya GC for six years. We discussed these results and how the organic matter has remained constant over time despite minimal sand topdressing and only 1 hollow-tine aerification in six years.
