The Energy and Sustainable Agriculture Program demonstrates and promotes alternative farming practices that are energy-efficient, environmentally sound, profitable and enhance the selfsufficiency of Minnesota farmers. The program focuses on on-farm research and information transfer, and administers demonstration grants and loans. This program sponsors on-farm research on weed management, composting and nitrogen management and prepares case studies of sustainable farms, plus administers a farmer-mentor program to assist beginning or transitional farmers in adopting alternative systems.
