HARTINGTON —The Bazile Groundwater Management Area is hosting a Regenerative Ag Field Day on Friday, July 17th, from 10 a.m. to 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 boosting soil health, improving nutrient cycling, reducing inputs, and adapting 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 Zach Smith, The Stock Cropper, who will discuss converting sunlight to dollars and increasing ROI by putting livestock back on the landscape.
A free lunch, optional, will be provided after the event at “The Breakroom” in Randolph, NE. Limited spots are available! The deadline to register is Monday, July 6.
