Abstract
Many Iowa farmers lack the knowledge base to grow small grains successfully. This grant supported visits and interviews with farmers across Iowa during small grains field operations in 2014. The goal was to capture the nuts and bolts of small grains production in both conventional and organic systems to facilitate greater adoption of these sustainable systems.
