As you go green with a salad, farmers go green by finding new ways to be sustainable. That means constantly working to improve farming techniques by adopting the latest technology and conservation practices. At this time of year, farmers use the latest technology to make pesticide applications as precisely as possible, which helps to make sure nothing is over-applied. Farmers want to do the best they can with the resources they have to be sure their farms are productive for many generations to come.
