Fantastic example of how farmers are taking care of the soils year round. Even after the crops have been harvested, it is important to keep the soil covered. Cover crops also help build soil organic matter and improve productivity. WIU School of Agriculture #WIUAgLife #Farm365
Crops can be modified for other reasons other than just a yield increase. For example, Golden Rice is a modified form of rice that provides vitamin A to a region that suffers from vitamin A deficiency. There are several benefits to using GMO crops. #WIUAgLife #Farm365 WIU School of Agriculture
The United States are on track for the highest yield and second most corn produced on record. Goes to show that technology and hybrid selection are allowing farmers to produce more corn than every before. #WIUAgLife #Farm365 WIU School of Agriculture
Research into labeling can be very important. For example, just because a product is labeled "Organic" does not mean they are pesticide free. Many organic producers still use pesticides during their production. #WIUAgLife #Farm365 WIU School of Agriculture
