In other words, producing enough food to today, while also ensuring the ability to feed the world tomorrow. Research and technology have brought continuous improvements to farming practices so today’s farmers can frow more crops using less land and fewer inputs. In South Dakota, our focus is on the future of our land and natural resources. With efficient machinery and precision agriculture tools, they are now raising more food while using fewer resources. Sustainable practices include cover crops, crop rotations, conservation tillage, and many more practices that preserve our natural resources.
