Survey to focus on best practices

     AUGUSTA, Maine — The Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry is currently conducting a research project to help categorize how Maine farms are engaging in sustainable practices and farm best management.

     In order to learn more about Maine’s diverse and growing farm scene, the department has developed a survey to gain feedback from farm producers, operators and owners/lessees.

     The brief survey is available at www.surveymonkey.com/r/6QXHSSZ. Responses should be completed by Feb. 15, 2016.
