  • Such a great way to stay up to date on research!

    I don’t have time (or the attention span) to read new publications on sustainable agriculture but I do listen to podcasts while I do chores and this is a great way to continue to learn and improve my own farm. Thank you for doing the important work of interpreting the science for practical on farm use.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Saving Tomorrow’s Agriculture Resources: The STAR Program in Action
Q: What is a unique or surprising outcome you've seen with STAR?
An absentee landowner in Iowa used STAR to formalize soil-health protections in a lease and created a landowner report that helps communicate a renter's conservation progress to potential landowners, showcasing STAR's utility beyond just farmers.
Saving Tomorrow’s Agriculture Resources: The STAR Program in Action
Q: Can you share a notable example of STAR influencing the supply chain?
Siemer Milling Company uses STAR as its stewardship program and pays per-acre bonuses when farmers reach a five-star rating, with rewards also possible for improvements in subsequent years, illustrating how STAR connects conservation actions to market incentives.
Saving Tomorrow’s Agriculture Resources: The STAR Program in Action
Q: How does the STAR scoring work and how do farmers use it to set goals?
STAR uses state-specific questions developed by science committees and stakeholders, producing an automatic 1 to 5-star rating after the farmer completes the form; farmers then map fields, consider next-year goals via the Conservation Innovation Plan, and view customized resources to support ongoing improvement.
Diving into Irrigation with Dr. Stacia Congers
Q: How have you seen the point of view of farmers really shifting from this place of drought every now and again to such a severe drought?
Post-drought, farmers typically increase irrigation capacity, but this time economic factors and inflation have hindered their ability to invest.
Diving into Irrigation with Dr. Stacia Congers
Q: What issues are they facing over the last 10 years?
