1,450-pound round bales. In 2019, his hay production increased by 27% to 431 round bales.
Slagowski’s site and its challenges may be similar to other locations throughout the nation, where the characteristics are present for improving irrigation efficiency through utilization of a pipeline delivering water to the site.
There are likely many other eligible projects where the NRCS can help use water more efficiently, conserve energy, reduce erosion, improve soil health, etc. Slagowski uses the NRCS as a resource whenever he has a problem or idea. “They [NRCS staff] were great to work with, and I would recommend their programs and staff to anyone who would like help solving irrigation and soil problems,” he said.
