A new, 12-page bulletin for farmers, ranchers and the extension
educators who work with them outlines how to conduct research at the
farm level. Published by the Sustainable Agriculture Research and
Education (SARE) program’s Sustainable Agriculture Network, the bulletin
offers practical tips for both crop and livestock producers, as well as
a comprehensive list of more in depth resources. Real-life examples --
from a Pennsylvania vegetable farmer testing new rotations to a Montana
producer experimenting with a legume called black medic to build soil
and prolong pasture -- may stimulate research ideas. Co-written by a
team of research scientists, the bulletin features many SARE grant
recipients. The free publication is available at
www.sare.org/htdocs/pubs/ or call (301) 504-6422 and request a copy
of "Put Your Ideas to the Test: How to Conduct Research on Your Farm or
Ranch."
