Mike and Dana Seifert are the fourth generation to live and work on Mike’s family farm in Jordan. Ravenview Farm is a 100-acre farm, with 65 acres of cropland. They came back to the farm five years ago and have made many changes. They still grow corn and soybeans but they also grow small grains and hay crops and they’re raising broiler chickens on pasture, making maple syrup and doing a lot more direct marketing. Learn more about their farming operation.
From heavy rains to extreme drought and damaging winds, farmers are adapting and changing. The ‘Climate Resilience on the Farm’ series features Minnesota farmers who are using practices to make their farms more resilient as the climate changes.
