Congratulations to seed corn growers Dyle Erickson and Steve Anderson & family on your Iowa Farm Environmental Leader awards! Both farmers are progressive in their geographical areas and leaders in their communities!
Having a great time at the #ISF2019 during the @hagiemfg partnership luncheon with the @IADeptAg. So many great people recognized for their efforts in environmental stewardship.
Adam's discussion about his 60" corn w/ growing cover crops (one goal is to graze all winter) was a perfect intro to Denise Schwab @ISUExtension to discuss grazing cover crops & the management that goes with it. We've got a good group of the next generation as well today!
Mark Mueller is a @SoilPartners farmer in Waverly & Iowa Corn Dist 3 Director. When asked about the financial benefits, his response? "I've seen reduced weed pressure, increased organic matter, & increased water permeability." And says "the benefits are more than the minor cost."
