Meet Trey Hill, innovative farmer

Farmers today face increasingly complex challenges, including fluctuating commodity prices, high labor and land costs, the adoption of new digital tools, and increased interest from downstream stakeholders in their sustainability practices. Those challenges don’t even account for extreme weather events, which are becoming more and more common across the country.  

To help combat some of these challenges, farmers can implement sustainability practices such as cover crops, reduced tillage, and nitrogen management, making farms more resilient and even increasing profitability. Trey Hill of Harborview Farms in Maryland exemplifies this approach by using precision technology and sustainable farming methods, continuing a family legacy of innovation in farming.
