Bartlett Corn Project

Insight
Active Project

Improving land use, soil conservation and water quality within our focused regions is top priority. We are actively engaging producers using the Fieldprint Platform. Our ongoing project will help contribute to solutions towards continuous improvement.

Engagement Targets

Notes: (1) Minor fluctuations in the number of retained growers is expected from year to year. These fluctuations may be due to year-over-year crop rotation effects or other factors beyond the control of the project. Enrolled acres represent the total number of acres on an individual farm in a specific year. The ability to report enrolled acres is based on the Fieldprint Project Standard requirement that individual growers enrolled in projects enter at least 10% of the acres managed for a specific crop. (2) Entered acres represent the actual number of enrolled acres for which data is entered in the Fieldprint Platform for analysis.
