Wildly Successful Farming tells the stories of farmers across the
American Midwest who are balancing profitability and food
production with environmental sustainability and a passion for all
things wild. They are using innovative techniques and strategies to
develop their "wildly" successful farms as working ecosystems.
Whether producing grain, vegetables, fruit, meat, or milk, these
next-generation agrarians look beyond the bottom line of the
spreadsheet to the biological activity on the land as key measures
of success. Written by agricultural journalist Brian DeVore, the
book is based on interviews he has conducted at farms, wildlife
refuges, laboratories, test plots, and gardens over the past
twenty-five years. He documents innovations in cover cropping,
managed rotational grazing, perennial polyculture, and integrated
pest management. His accounts provide insight into the impacts
regenerative farming methods can have on wildlife, water,
landscape, soils, and rural communities and suggest ways all of us
can support wildly successful farmers.
