I believe OGRAIN is the best organic farming conference in the midwest and I have heard many farmers make the same comments.

Farmers reported learning a lot about incorporating cover crops, organic fertility management and organic no-till practices.
Growers agreed that what they learned at the conference will have a positive impact on their operations.
Conversations started at the OGRAIN conference continue year-round.
