Whole Farm Planning
Whole Farm Planning is a holistic approach to farm management which focuses on land stewardship and sustainable practices. These practices include riparian buffers, filter strips, conservation tillage, grassed waterways, livestock exclusion, nutrient management, drainage water management, manure management, rotational grazing, wildlife habitat, contour farming, field borders, windbreaks, crop rotations, cover crops, pest management, and erosion control. Incorporating these techniques into your land can help reduce erosion, flooding, and pollutant distribution.
