Planning Unit: Lincoln County CES

Major Program: Forages

Plan of Work: Agriculture Sustainability and Marketing 2020-24

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Whether you have one acre or a thousand, i treat everyone the same. If its important to them, its important to me. I am slowly gaining the trust of the producers of Lincoln County. I have been working with a producer for the last three years on a hay field that is consistanly having problems. I have took soil test, had specialist come and look at the field, pulled in agronomist from industry level, and have studied research reports myself looking for answers. Through hard work, deadication, and perservance, i have gained the trust of this producer as well as help him make a crop of hay. I actually just talked with this producer this morning, and he was working on harvesting this field. His comments were "you got to make hay when the sun is shining".
