Research & Projects

On-Farm Innovation, Shared Knowledge

At Farming Forward, we support research and projects that are led by producers, grounded in real farm or ranch contexts, and focused on building regenerative, resilient systems.

Crops & Cover Crops

Diverse rotations, intercropping, seeding tools.

It Starts with a Farmer’s Question

We co-design simple, real-world trials that explore the questions producers are already asking. Whether it’s in the field, with livestock, or testing new tools, we help with:

  • Applying for funding

  • Setting up the trial

  • Collecting and interpreting data

  • Sharing results, openly and accessibly

Your curiosity drives the work. We’re here to help you move forward.
