A note to our Minnesota farmers,

Farming comes with challenges – you’re not alone.

Every season brings new challenges, and many Minnesota farmers are dealing with similar issues and exploring ways to adapt. Here are some common concerns we hear about:

  • Soil Erosion and Declining Fertility

  • Unpredictable Weather and Extreme Conditions

  • Rising Input Costs and Fertilizer Efficiency

  • Weed Pressure and Herbicide Resistance

  • Water Quality and Runoff Concerns

Proven solutions for these concerns:

  • Cover crops

  • Interseeding

  • Crop rotation

  • Nutrient management

  • Conservation Tillage

  • Incorporating Livestock

  • Perennial crops

Interested in trying new practices but unsure where to start?

Many farmers are curious about new conservation practices but aren’t sure how they’ll fit into their operation. Possible approaches for these challenges include farmer-to-farmer learning, cost-share programs, and small-scale trials to help make the transition smoother
