Sustainable Ag Program Enrollment Is Way Up in the Northern High Plains, with Christine Bielski

Christine Bielski's ability to leverage data and science with integrity and transparency is a big part of the reason why she has been named "Trusted Adviser of the Year" by Field to Market.

And it's also a big part of the reason why the Northern High Plains Division, where she works as Nutrien Ag Solutions' research and sustainability manager, has seen 10x enrollment in certain sustainability programs over the last three years.

We chatted with Christine three years ago in episode 18 of this podcast about what we could learn from Nutrien Ag Solutions' carbon pilot.

And given the massive growth since then, and her award from Field to Market, we figured it was about time we caught up with her again.

So in this episode, Christine joins us to talk about the abundant challenges growers face in the Northern High Plains, how they're leveraging sustainable agriculture practices to improve their yields, and what she expects to see over the next couple years.

Plus, she shares some hard-earned insights about what works and what doesn't in one of North America's most challenging agricultural geographies.
