What Sustainable Agriculture Means to Us


We believe that sustainable agriculture is a food and fiber production and distribution system that:
     
  • supports profitable production; 
  • protects environmental quality; 
  • uses natural resources efficiently; 
  • provides consumers with affordable, high-quality products; 
  • decreases dependency on nonrenewable resources; 
  • enhances the quality of life for farmers and rural communities; 
  • and will last for generations to come.
