\"\"<\/a>Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation is excited to invite farmers and agriculturists to attend \u201cLeaders of the Land: A State Sustainability Series\u201d. This series of nine tours will take place across the state in each of the Farm Bureau districts, highlighting diverse commodities and sustainability practices.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarm Bureau is a unique organization because we bring together many different farm types, sizes and commodities,\u201d said WFBF President Kevin Krentz. \u201cThis new series is meant to bring farmers and agriculturalists together to talk about what sustainability means on different farms and businesses. Everyone has a sustainability story to share, and we have more in common across the state when it comes to stewardship practices than you might think.\u201d<\/p>\n

The purpose of the State Sustainability Series is to offer farmers and agriculturists different perspectives regarding environmental stewardship across Wisconsin. These events will bring farmers of all types together to explore how diverse sectors of agriculture achieve similar goals regarding water quality, soil health, waste management, carbon conversations and air quality. Each event will feature a unique learning opportunity, applicable across farms and allow networking across sectors of agriculture and areas of the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe encourage members to attend as many tours as possible,\u201d added Krentz \u201cThe more tours you attend, the more value you receive from the program. We are very excited to bring our members together around this topic to learn and grow from each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

The following is the list of events in the series:<\/p>\n
