Farm Tip: Call the Coalition to Explore New Livestock Initiatives

As the landscape of livestock farming changes in Iowa, the Coalition strives to keep pace with innovative livestock practices and opportunities. From fish farming to state-of-the-art livestock buildings, the Coalition can help you consider which ventures might be the right fit for your farm. We realize that every livestock farm is unique and a one-size-fits-all approach will not work on all Iowa farms today. Give us a call today to schedule a time for us to come out to your farm and help you determine what may be the best fit for your family.
