    In Southern Idaho, Tillage Reductions Help Growers Exceed Water Conservation Goals and Improve Soil Health, with Justin Place

    Center pivot irrigation is so prevalent in Southern Idaho, you can see it from space. With only 12 inches of annual rainfall, Justin Place says his 1,250-acre operation is heavily reliant on pumping water from the Upper Snake River aquifer to grow wheat, barley, alfalfa and mustard. But, faced with a mandate to cut water use by 15 percent, he's spent the last decade incorporating no-till and minimal-till into his practices; and that has allowed him not only to exceed those water management goals, but also improve his soil health. So in this episode, we spent some time learning more about Justin's operation, as well as his involvement as President of the Idaho Grain Producers Association. We'll discuss how sustainability means different things to different folks in the Rockies, how commodity groups can help growers incorporate new sustainability practices, what practices are working in the arid valley along the Upper Snake River, and what new technologies are helping him thrive in a challenging climate.

    What Does the Missed Farm Bill Deadline Mean for Sustainable Ag, with Renee Munasifi

    When the U.S. Congress missed a key deadline to extend or renew the Farm Bill last month, it was not without precedent. But it is concerning, nonetheless, for growers who count on this massive piece of agriculture policy to lay the groundwork for everything from crop insurance to food stamps to sustainable ag incentives. So in this episode of the FARMSMART Podcast, we're talking to Renee Munasifi, Senior Director of Global Government & Industry Affairs at Nutrien, about what the Farm Bill's expiration means for growers. She'll explain how Congress could still act before the end of the year, and what could happen if they don't, as well as the importance of growers reaching out to their elected representatives now to get them to take action. We'll also explore what different election outcomes might mean for sustainable ag policy, and how Nutrien's public affairs team is working to give growers the tools they need to provide sustainable food, fiber and fuel for the world.

    Biocontrol Technologies Offer a New Edge in Sustainable Ag, with President of Global Retail Jeff Tarsi

    Pest control has always been at the top of a farmer's mind throughout the growing season.

    Feeding the Future: Why It's Critical to Tell the World Our Sustainability Story, with Tim Faveri

    The global spotlight on agriculture has never been brighter than it is today. Farmers have spent decades producing food, fuel and fiber for the world, all while serving as stewards for the land and the next generation. But increased global attention to the ongoing climate crisis means that every agricultural practice is under the microscope. And if growers aren't telling their sustainability story, they risk being left out of key discussions that will shape the future of agriculture policy. So in this episode, we're talking with Tim Faveri, the Vice President of Sustainability and Stakeholder Relations at Nutrien. His team works across the organization to integrate sustainability strategy and advance environmental stewardship with partners across the globe. We'll talk about how they are helping growers shape common sense policy, how fostering partnerships with external stakeholders are an important facet of the strategy, and what they've learned in the last several years of helping farmers share their sustainability story.
