Minnesota Agriculture Water Research Center’s Discovery Farms Program Coordinator Tim Radatz says the main goal of Discovery Farms is gathering credible research data on working farms. “When we show up to a farm and we don’t change what’s going on in the field. We just monitor what’s currently going on. We set up a monitoring system to collect quality, unbiased information we can use in our education and outreach program.” Radatz says making quality, useable data is the bottom line. “We focus on communications and outreach, because we don’t want to collect this data to have it sit on the shelf.”
