Environmental and Agricultural Services | Practical Farmers of Iowa

Provides consultation in economical and sustainable production systems, demonstrations, outreach, and marketing alternatives. Farmers in the network raise corn and soybeans, hay, livestock large and small, horticultural crops from fruits and vegetables to cut flowers and herbs, and more. Members have conventional and organic systems; employ diverse management practices; run operations of all sizes; and come from a range of backgrounds. These farmers come together, however, because they believe in nature as the model for agriculture and they are committed to moving their operations toward sustainability.
