The Bazile Groundwater Management Area is hosting a Regenerative Ag Field Day on Friday, July 17th from 10 a.m.-Noon.
The site is located near McLean - three miles west of the Highway 81/20 junction and a quarter mile north of 552nd Road.
This field day is the perfect opportunity for producers in northeast Nebraska to see regenerative ag in action and connect with like-minded producers. Explore a field where corn is planted with alfalfa. Learn real world strategies from regional experts on topics such as how to boost soil health, improve nutrient cycling, reduce inputs, and how to adapt when circumstances change.
Featured speakers include Junior Pfanstiel, Outside the Box Agronomy, who will discuss the theory, process, and goals of converting to regenerative agriculture practices. Pfanstiel will be joined by Zack Smith, The Stock Cropper, who will discuss converting sunlight to dollars and increasing ROI with putting livestock back on the landscape
A free lunch, optional, will be provided after the event at The Breakroom in Randolph. Limited spots are available, and the deadline to register is Monday, July 6th.
