| Impact Report | Soil degradation due to poor soil and crop management has affected yields on New Mexico farms. Dissemination of information on sustainable production practices is helping farmers in the State understand how to better manage their crops and soils, reduce environmental degradation and improve their economic bottom line. Integrated field crop production and management extension program has enabled farmers in New Mexico to learn how to improve their soil and adopt sound agronomic management practices to help optimize yields on their farms. A survey conducted during a recent workshop on Corn Production in southern NM showed that 90% of the attendees found the information presented on soil and crop management useful, and are willing to attend similar workshops in the future. |
