The OSU Extension Water Quality Team has just released their 2025 edition of the Soil Health Tour, an interactive StoryMap utilizing ArcGIS maps, photos, videos, and discussions with farmers and experts to illustrate an important tool for improving water quality.
To learn more about this practice from experts in the field, see case studies of different two-stage ditches across the region, and hear feedback from producers who have installed this practice, be sure to check out the 2025 Soil Health Tour StoryMap at go.osu.edu/25StoryMap! If you are interested in learning more about cost share or the process of installing a two-stage ditch on your property, reach out to your local Soil and Water Conservation District office. Questions about the StoryMap can be directed to waterqualityassociates@osu.edu.
