The USDA office in Huntingdon County is interested in promoting regenerative farming practices. While there has been some interest among the farming community, more could be done. The USDA office would like to provide leadership by working with local farmers to explore regenerative practices and possibly establish demonstration sites. Students had the opportunity to visit farms and talk with owners to identify potential areas. Students also developed a plan to determine any applicable approaches taking into account local conditions and farmer’s preferences in a regenerative grazing operation.
