Tom Corcoran, a farmer from New York, faced challenges in implementing sustainable practices on leased land until he joined the New York Outcomes Fund. This program incentivizes farmers to adopt cover crops and reduced tillage by providing payments, alleviating upfront costs and risks. Corcoran's participation allowed him to extend these practices across all his acres, significantly improving soil health and reducing runoff. The initiative has already shown impressive results in terms of environmental impact and is expanding its reach in the coming year, demonstrating a growing commitment to sustainable agriculture.
