BIRD FRIENDLY FARMING

In 2020 and 2021, we tested our certification standards on Jim Munsch's Deer Run Farm in Coon Valley, WI. We completed breeding bird surveys and an economic analysis to better understand the costs to farmers of this system... Certifying Bird-Friendly Beef is only the beginning and we hope to continue our dialogue and partnership with farmers as we develop more bird-friendly farming practices. We are committed to listening to the feedback from our farmers to find more common ground... Our Bird-Friendly Farming programs are designed to be farmer-friendly while at the same time providing crucial nesting support for our grassland birds of Wisconsin.
