Growing, Marketing, and Measuring the Climate-Smart Impacts of Organic Grain & Field Crops
Update (2026): Marbleseed and its partners continue this work under the USDA Advancing Markets for Producers (AMP) initiative. Note: they are at capacity for interested producers for 2026. Details: marbleseed.org.
This multistate project plans to enroll field crop farmers already engaged in organic grain production or desiring to transition to organic systems. Each participating farmer would receive an enrollment incentive for the duration of the project that would compensate them for their time, farming expenses, implementing climate-smart agriculture practices like cover crops and diverse crop rotations, attending regional Grower Summits, assisting with monitoring greenhouse gas benefits on their farm, and working with Field Service Coordinators.
Each producer would also work with field service coordinators and marketers to develop an Individual Marketing Plan, aimed at promoting the commodities that they are producing.
