Please join us for a conversation with Alex Echols of the Campbell Foundation.
The Keith Campbell Foundation for the Environment is a family foundation focused on how a vibrant economy provides support for regional economies. Geographic focal areas include the Chesapeake and Atlantic Coastal Bays and Northern California and the San Francisco Bay watershed.
Alex Echols, the Foundation’s program director for agriculture, will discuss how the Foundation sets priorities and what they are. He will provide a few examples of how they work to bring groups together, focusing the use of science in decision making, improving environmental returns on investment (E-ROI), and developing innovations in conservation. He will further discussion how this has worked with nutrient management, particularly with chicken and dairy production.
