The Louisiana Master Farmer Program
The Louisiana Master Farmer Program helps agricultural producers voluntarily address the environmental concerns related to production agriculture, as well as enhance their production and resource management skills that will be critical for the continued viability of Louisiana agriculture. This program involves producers becoming more knowledgable about environmental stewardship, resource-based production and resource management through a voluntary producer certification process.
A Louisiana Master Farmer should:
- Demonstrate knowledge of and dedication to environmental stewardship
- Demonstrate mastery levels of conservation-based production
- Demonstrate resource management through the implementation of a comprehensive conservation plan
- Promote the success of local-level conservation to the agricultural community and public and private interests
