Join local producers for an evening discussion focused on cover crops, grazing integration, and the economics of plant diversity. Dakota Odgers from Covers & Co. will share real-world insights on how diverse cropping systems and livestock integration can work together on the farm, what to consider when getting started, and where the numbers need to make sense. The presentation will be followed by open discussion, questions, and peer-to-peer conversation around what’s working, what isn’t, and how producers are adapting plant diversity to fit their own operations. In addition, SCIC will be presenting on the Satellite Forage Insurance which provides coverage when there is a shortage of soil moisture. It uses satellite-based technology to measure soil moisture, an important factor in forage production.
