Conserving water resources is a growing attribute to livestock farms in the area.  The Mason County Extension Agriculture program and Mason County Soil Conservation hosted a field day for local producers to increase awareness of water conservation and utilization of no-till drills for pasture renovation.  The host farm has developed a water collection system above ground to water livestock from rainwater to ease the costs of municipal water.   The water is collected in tanks and gravity fed to watering stations across the farm.  UK Specialists discussed collection methods and opportunities to develop a system like the one in place at the host farm.   UK specialists also discussed the method of calibrating a no-till drill and usage for renovation for fields in farming operations.  Over 40 individuals attended the event and gained useful information to incorporate techniques to improve management and overhead costs on farm.    As a result of the field day, two farms are currently scheduled to meet with ANR Agents, UK Specialists, and local soil conservation to develop water conservation resources, field renovation recommendations, and grazing layouts.
