The Pickaway Soil and Water Conservation District would like to offer a huge congratulations to Musselman Farms LLC for being chosen as the Pickaway SWCD 2020 Conservationist of the Year!
Over the past several years, Bennett and Tom Musselman have installed various methods of conservation including widening filter strips to reduce sediment in surface water, utilizing conservation crop rotation, and practicing integrated pest management and nutrient management through the latest technology. Bennett has embraced good soil health practices through no-till and planting cover crops. He has also implemented wildlife and pollinator habitats on his farm through the Conservation Stewardship Program, which includes using cover crops to provide habitat for pollinators and beneficial insects, and leaving grain unharvested to benefit wildlife cover and shelter.
The Pickaway Soil and Water Conservation District has enjoyed working with the Musselman family and we are excited to continue working with them to conserve our natural resources here in Pickaway County.
