As the region’s largest dairy operation\, Duff Family Farm manages chemical-free\, organic milk production from Holstein and Jersey-cross cattle\, alongside small-scale beef and egg production. \nA primary focus of this walk will be the intersection of livestock pastures and crop fields. Attendees will see how strategic tilling and crop rotations with corn and small grains impact overall soil health and pasture longevity. Extension Forage Educator Jaime Garzon and members of the Duff family will lead discussions on maintaining nutrient balance in organic soils and navigating mid-summer forage deficits. This session is geared for producers looking to scale up their grazing systems or integrate row crops with livestock. \nThe Maine Pasture Walk Series is free and open to all\, including both beginner and experienced farmers.
