One promising solution? Carbon-based soil amendments. In a recent episode of Cutting the Curve, Arkansas farmer Matt Miles joined host Damian Mason, alongside Brad Benson and Brandon Laws of Activated Carbon Technologies (ACT), to discuss how carbon amendments are helping farmers optimize nutrient use and improve yields using the fertility already present in their soil. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/xtremeag-cutting-the-curve-podcast-4765850/episodes/farming-podcast-are-your-soil-nutrients-going-unused-xtremeag/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/xtremeag-cutting-the-curve-podcast-4765850/farming-podcast-are-your-soil-nutrients-going-unused-xtremeag.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
