Join Understanding Ag’s Michael Thiele and Blain Hjertaas with special guest Kevin Elmy (Thanks to Imperial Seed) for a hands-on, 2-day workshop focused on regenerative agriculture. Learn how soil health, cover crops, and livestock management work together to improve productivity, profitability, and resilience on your farm or ranch.
Farmers, ranchers, agronomists, and anyone interested in regenerative agriculture, soil health, and livestock integration.
Michael has worked with many conservation organizations focused on soil, water and wildlife habitat in the context of Prairie agriculture. More recently, Michael has worked directly with producers to build regenerative agriculture plans that are designed to rebuild degraded soils and restore farm profitability.
With over 45 years of experience in agriculture, Blain has discovered that the regenerative approach is much easier, more enjoyable, and more profitable.
