Putting Money in My Pocket

May 21, 2019 Playas, Conservation Delivery, Working Lands, Kansas

Andy Hineman is a dryland farmer in Lane County, Kansas. He is focused on increasing the efficiency of his operation, which includes taking many of his playas out of production and enrolling them in a conservation program. “In our combines we’ve got yield mapping capabilities, so it’s easy to look at each field that has playas. It’s pretty evident those are a big fat zero on most of the years compared to the rest of the field. It makes it pretty easy to decide to enroll it into a program that’s going to be beneficial for the environment and wildlife — and put money back in my pocket.”
