The Soil & Nutrient Management module will provide an in-depth study of Urban Trees. Soil quality is a primary concern for arborists since it directly impacts tree and shrub establishment, growth, health and life span. We will discuss the importance of high-quality soils along with proper soil management techniques. We will also discuss the “ideal soil” and its importance in root growth and stability, water and nutrient availability along with drainage and aeration.
