Senate Ag Committee members discussed conservation funding during a recent farm bill hearing.
Minnesota Democrat Tina Smith tells Brownfield there’s a great need to research working lands conservation practices.
“For example, in northern climates where you might need to be thinking about different ways of doing cover crops. Or with different seasons, different ways for that to work.”
She says the farm bill hearing focused on how research dollars should be targeted in the ag sector.
