Who is this course for?

Farmers and advisors at any stage, from those just curious to experienced operators wanting to sharpen what they already do. No prior experience with the method is assumed.

Will this work in my climate?

Kevin teaches how to pick species for your goals, soil and season rather than one mix for everyone. You'll come away able to design a mix for your own paddocks, and the Smartsoil calculator will help you do the maths.

How long do I have access?

For good. It's a one-off payment, and the course stays in your Smartsoil account to work through at your own pace.

Do I need a subscription?

No. This course is a one-off payment on its own. If you'd rather have all three courses, Learn covers the lot for $299 a year.

How do I get into the course after paying?

You create a free Smartsoil account (or sign in to the one you have), pay on Stripe's secure page, and the course is unlocked in your account straight away.
