It's a busy season for our group with working in the fields, hosting events, attending field days and several research projects going on.

Submitted by Tony Peirick, HSHW

We have changed our cover crop incentive program (CCIP) to attract new applicants that have not applied for it in the past. A new program has been added, Pay for Performance Phosphorus Reduction. This is for farmers that have participated and can do any conservation practice that improves soil health as well as get compensated. HSHW recognizes the importance of protecting soil and promoting soil health.

We are already organizing a number of field days this summer that are open to anyone interested in learning more. We also look forward to the Pontoon rides this summer.

Hope to see and meet Dodge County people this summer at our events. You can also connect with us at the Dodge County Fair in August, hope you stop in our display.
