Turning red 🔴 areas green ✅, with Precision Ag!

Farmers often know the pieces of ground that just don’t pencil out business wise. Whether it’s consistently low yields or areas that produce high yields once every few years, but flood out most years, these areas can end up losing money consistently.

Pheasant’s Forever’s Precision Ag program is focused on helping farmers identify those areas and then build a plan, navigate conservation programs and ensure they are choosing the right options for the unique situations each farm faces.

As an example, a 38-acre piece of the Berkland farm had about 17 acres that often stayed wet. Pheasants Forever staff analyzed eight years of yield data for that field and found those 17 acres lost an average of $45/acre. To continue to crop those red areas was an almost guaranteed loss. Through targeted efforts, we can help convert those red areas into practices like wildlife buffers, pollinator patches, or warm season grass stands. These will enhance the local habitat while also enhance your yearly profit margins. Two birds with one stone, no pun intended!

In Illinois, our Precision Ag Representative, is Dallas Glazik.
With growing up farming, he has first-hand experience in weighing the options to have the best fields possible. Contact him at the below email to begin the process of analyzing your fields.

"Together we can Farm the Best and Conserve the Rest"

05/01/2026

Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026. This is a major step towards completing a bipartisan, five-year farm bill this year, and restoring certainty and stability for farmers, ranchers, and rural communities. Most importantly, the House farm bill would reauthorize the Conservation Reserve Program through 2031, a vital part of the farm safety net and the foundation of private lands conservation for upland birds and many other wildlife species nationwide.

Thank you to Chairman Thompson and members of the House Agriculture Committee for their work on this bill, and thank you to the members of the upland community who took action to urge their representatives to keep the farm bill process moving forward!
