NY farmers know the questions they need answered. That's why farmers across NY read, evaluate and discuss the proposals Farm Viability receives seeking funding.

Any time a cover crop can be a forage crop it's a win!
Forage oats and medium red clover is a nice late-summer or early-fall combination for providing nitrogen the following year, as well as weed suppression and winter erosion protection. This one turned out pretty good. youtu.be/E-zlaYe8DaY

Farmers, here's an opportunity to trial this on your farm!
The first results are in. Now looking for farmers interested in joining the project in 2023 and learn more about the value of manure! Check us out @CornellNMSP (nmsp.cals.cornell.edu/NYOnFa…) for this @NYFarmViability and NNYADP funded project.

Facts are always good! If you've got data @CornellNMSP can help you put it to good use!
Which areas of your fields have consistently low or high yield vs variable yield over time? With at least 3yrs of #YieldMonitor data you can generate stability zone maps to help manage your fields more efficiently! 👉🏻bit.ly/yieldstabilityzones our NEW #FactSheetFriday for more!🚜🗺️

Congratulations to Juan, and the rest of the team at @CornellNMSP for such a great showing at last week's #ACSmtg Looks like all the seeds that @QKetterings has been planting are producing yields!
Join @JuanCarlos_2343, our On-Farm Research Coordinator, as he presents the preliminary results of our #OnFarmResearch project assessing the nitrogen and yield improvement value of various manure sources. This research involves three New York farms! #ACSmtg

Can grid-based #soil measurements explain yield and yield variability of corn fields? Join our Data Specialist @buruguduy as he presents our research on how yield-based management zones are driven by soil fertility. @ASA_CSSA_SSSA @SSSA_soils #ACSmtg

Are you a People's Garden, or know someone that is? Let's get NY represented on this USDA map!
Grow with us! The #PeoplesGarden Initiative is expanding to include eligible gardens nationwide. School gardens, community gardens, urban farms, etc can be recognized as a “People’s Garden” if they register on the USDA website and meet certain criteria. bit.ly/3TVXOtv
Specialty Crop Growers--share your production challenges with NY researchers and extension teams. Specialty Crop RFP is now open, let's get some good proposals in!

Last day to give to help sequence the genome of the NYS insect, the ninespotted lady beetle! This beetle is now so rare that east of the MS river, it can only be found on one farm on Long Island. Help us preserve this rare species and RT widely. experiment.com/projects/sequ…

The program will provide grants of up to $15 million to qualifying recipients that will use the funding to create a revolving loan fund to finance capacity expansion. agweb.com/news/policy/politi…

It's wonderful to see this work reach a strong recommendation. Recommended for USDA SCBG funding by NYFVI review panels in 2015, it is one of several leafroll projects that our reviewers have supported. Congratulations to all involved! morningagclips.com/vine-remo…
