Gabe Brown is a Great Plains producer in North Dakota who now uses zero synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides on his 5,000 acre farm/ranch. His corn production out-yields the county average by 25%. His operation successfully has less input and more profit. He starts his tractor one each winter, utilizing bale grazing to improve his pastures, plus his cattle also graze cover crops during the winter, harvesting their own feed instead of starting tractors every day.

On December 5, 2016, Nebraska farmers and ranchers have a special opportunity to hear Gabe tell his story in Ord. Topics include: no-till management tips, proper cover crop management utilization, how to establish and maintain good soil health and important no-till practices for soil erosion and moisture conservation.
Coffee and rolls will be provided at registration with a catered lunch at noon.
Registration is required. Gabe's visit to Ord is being arranged by Loup Basin RC&D.
