Mark McConnell has spent more than 30 years experimenting with practices that improve soil quality and water use efficiency on his southeast Nebraska farm. His long-standing commitment to building a sustainable operation has included terracing, no-till, cover crops, and livestock integration to address erosion, improve soil biology, and create a system that can rely on natural biology and organic matter to reduce inputs. He believes that in order to implement a system that will be sustainable in the long term, producers should focus on doing everything they can to protect our basic natural resources, while using the available building blocks to make needed improvements along the way.
