Nebraska Extension is hosting a series of free Field to Market workshops to help farmers interested in field sustainability move toward continuous improvement of their operation.
Using the Field to Market Fieldprint® Calculator farmers will enter management and production information which will be used to compare their fields with national, state, and local averages for the metrics of yield, erosion, irrigation efficiency, energy use, and greenhouse gas emissions. Data and production information is confidential.
Participants will quantify environmental indicators that affect profit of a field and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and sustainability.
