The Lower Fox Demonstration Farms Network has been busy in the agricultural conservation arena this spring.  The network reports the following agricultural conservation efforts:

  • The ZRX Roller/Crimper was used to plant 60 acres of cover crops on 6 farms
  • The 6 row interseeder from the Plum & Kankapot GLRI project was used to plant approximately 75 acres of cover crops
  • The 12 row interseeder from The Nature Conservancy was used to plant an additional 11 acres of cover crops

For more information on the Lower Fox Demonstration Farms Network projects, including videos and pictures of these…AND MORE, conservation efforts, please check out these additional links:

ADDITIONALLY…if you are interested in seeing agricultural conservation equipment in action, consider joining the Demo Farms Text Messaging Service.  This service will text you times and locations that the equipment is being utilized.
