AMES, Iowa -- Iowa farmers and ranchers can get free information on small-scale agriculture from the Small Farm Digest.
The Small Farm Digest is an 8-page publication produced three times a year by the United States Department of Agriculture's Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service. Each issue provides articles on topics of importance to small-scale producers and relays their success stories, according to Jerry DeWitt, Iowa State University Extension sustainable agriculture specialist.
This publication also includes media resources to assist small-scale farmers and ranchers, and grant, loan and training opportunities. Each issue lists upcoming events nationwide that would be of interest to the small-farm community.
To receive the Small Farm Digest, please send your name and address to DeWitt, Insectary Bldg., Room 109, Iowa State University, Ames, IA 50011 or call 515-294-1101. There is no charge for this publication. You also can access Small Farm Digest on-line at www.reeusda.gov/agsys/sfd/index.htm.
