Manure Management & Cover Crops: Practical Strategies for Dairy Success

Join the Sustainable Farming Association and the Minnesota Dairy Initiative for a free lunch-and-learn workshop aimed at helping dairy producers maximize on-farm resources to improve productivity and profitability.

Featuring Doug Voss and Kent Solberg, this event will provide actionable strategies through two focused sessions:
– Cutting the Crap with Manure – Discover where nutrient losses occur in manure management and learn how to retain and maximize the value of what you already have.
– Cover Crops for Dairy – Identify the right cover crops to build a forage chain that supports your herd, improves soil health, and enhances your bottom line.

While tailored for dairy producers, this workshop offers practical insights for all farmers, ranchers, and graziers interested in improving resource efficiency and operational success. No matter your operation’s focus, you’ll leave with tools to implement better manure management, forage planning, and grazing strategies on your farm.

Registration: This event is free to attend. Lunch is on us! Advance registration requested, walkups welcome.

Address: 1522 Broadway St. Alexandria, MN 56308
