“This paper is intended to help agricultural lenders and other members of the farm finance community better understand how soil health conservation practices, particularly conservation tillage and cover crops, affect both on-farm profitability and off-farm economics. In addition to lenders and loan underwriters, the information included should be of interest to farmland appraisers, farmland managers, and those working in risk management related to agriculture.”
