Global magazine spotlights one of the production practices that make U.S. soybean farmers the most sustainable in the world
U.S. soybean farmers are among the most sustainable in the world, using sustainable farming practices including cover crops, precision agriculture and water management. The impact of this stewardship and continuous improvement extends far beyond the agricultural community, as it benefits the land and resources used by all.
Take water management – water is used in the production of virtually every food and product we buy, elevating sustainability to consumers and mainstream media.
National Geographic, which highlights geography, history and world culture for 6.5 million readers worldwide, has posted an interactive quiz on its web site to allow consumers to see how much they know (or don’t know) about U.S. farmers’ water management.
