SUMMARY:New Planter Field Trials & Multi-species Cover Crops - Twin B Dairy
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Twin B Dairy Farm for an in-field look at The Digital Farmer & Crew’s newly designed soybean planter field trials. We’ll explore visible plant differences and dive into how planter performance influences soybean root development. Afterward\, we’ll head over to another field where Adam has established multispecies cover crops following small-grain harvest. This will be a great opportunity to talk through species selection and discuss how diverse cover crops impact plant conditions and overall soil health. EPPIC will provide lunch following the field tours.

SUMMARY:Cavern Point Farm Pasture Walk and Tour
DESCRIPTION:Jason and Jocelyn Cavadini and their five children manage a Red Angus beef herd on 70 acres of pasture. They use management‑intensive rotational grazing with the goal of extending the grazing season through December. In winter\, the herd is outwintered using bale grazing. Afterwards\, the outwintering area is seeded with an annual cover crop mix for quick forage and to prepare the sight for reseeding of perennials in the fall. We’ll cover how to extend the grazing season with stockpiled forage\, the soil‐building benefits of well-managed bale grazing\, and effective pasture renovation practices.
