About our Farm:
The Conservation Cropping Systems Project is a no-till demo farm operated through the Wild Rice Soil Conservation District with a board of directors serving from Soil Conservation Districts in Ransom, Richland and Dickey Counties in North Dakota and Marshall and Day counties in South Dakota. The farm is funded and supported by many different groups and individuals who value the conservation of soil, water and energy resources.
Field days are held annually in July. Next field day will be 7/12/2012.
