What is Sustainable Agriculture?
Many traditional and industrial ag practices use large amounts of chemicals and pesticides that harm the soil, water, air, and climate. Sustainable agriculture aims to protect the resources our farms rely on while creating more efficient and profitable operations.
Environmentally sustainable ag practices include:
- Crop diversity and rotation
- Planting cover crops to prevent erosion
- Reducing or eliminating tillage
- Integrating crop and animal production
- Water quality management
Stewarding these resources teaches us to respect the land and ensures farmers can meet the demands our communities need to flourish.
