Watch this video to learn how technology and conservation practices are incorporated on the farm. Modern agriculture uses technology and conservation to improve the sustainability of the land while enhancing soil, air, and water quality by using only the necessary amount of nutrients to grow healthy plants. The use of technology on the farm, such as GPS, precision planting, and variable rate application, enables the farmer to produce more with less of an environmental footprint. Over the last 60 years, Illinois farmers have more than doubled their production while using 11% less land and using less fertilizer and less fuel. More than 1 million acres in Illinois are set aside each year into conservation programs which benefit wildlife and pollinators and protects the most environmentally sensitive land.
