Season Two of the Field Work farming podcast launches March 11 with weekly episodes dropping on Wednesdays. In this season of Field Work, co-hosts Mitchell Hora and Zach Johnson will continue their conversations about cover crops, conservation tillage, and water management, while expanding into dairy farm sustainability, integrating livestock into a row crop operation, bioreactors, hemp farming and more.
