The Ag Center, a program offered by EPA's Office of Compliance, seeks to increase compliance by helping the agricultural community identify flexible, common sense ways to comply with the many environmental requirements that affect their businesses. It has one of the best sets of farmer financial and production records in North America.
Farmers get the benefit of financial and production analysis and income tax management help.
KRC is the implementor of the Heartland Project, a project that seeks to develop a network of farmers, and others, to influence agriculture's direction in the region via cluster group formation, research, on- farm trials, farm tours, workshops, and other activities. Under the Heartland Project, the Department of Agricultural Economics and KFMA are collaborating with KRC to build an alternative farming database using the same parameters that KFMA is using.
