3 Ways New York Dairy Farmers Practice Sustainability

New York dairy farmers practice sustainability to ensure they reduce their environmental impact and pave the way for a sustainable future.

Growing Crops 🌱

Growing crops and protecting the environment go hand in hand!

By using crop rotation and organic fertilizers, we're not only increasing yields, but we're also reducing our impact on the environment.

implementing new practices 🚜

By implementing practices such as irrigation efficiency and water recycling, farmers ensure enough water for agricultural and domestic uses. This includes sanitizing equipment and providing drinking water for cows.
