“I wish I didn't have to deal with these dryland corners on my fields. They are more trouble than they are worth.”

This offhand remark from a farmer has led to a full-fledged research initiative at Farming Smarter to explore how farmers manage these tricky, often-overlooked portions of irrigated fields.

The new project is entitled No Cutting Corners: Realizing the Sustainable Potential of Dryland Corners.

Ashley Wagenaar, Conservation Agronomist at Farming Smarter, is super excited to explore farms' different strategies for managing these areas.

She believes they can provide value to anyone interested in changing their approach or seeking advice on managing these areas differently.
