The Vermont nonprofit Strolling of the Heifers, known for its annual parade of dairy animals and promotion of local food, has provided seed funding to establish the Agritech Institute for Small Farms. The Institute will promote the adoption of innovative agritech tools and land management practices by small farms, which improve farm financial viability and environmental performance. In addition, the Institute seeks to embrace small farms as climate change mitigation solutions, achieving measurable carbon sequestration, and improved water quality and soil health through sustainable practices. It will be conducting academic research and on-farm applied research at Vermont’s small dairies, with an emphasis on measurable outcomes. Learn more and apply
