Conservation Practices Award LeRoy and Sasha Ness Leroy and Sasha have been very active producers when it comes to installing conservation practices over the past 5 years. Not only have the built a waste storage facility but they have installed several miles of cross fences and piplines and a number of watering facilities to implement an intensive rotational grazing system on their place. They also have seeded several acres of cropland back to native grasses and inter-seeded legumes into existing grass. Several acres of shelterbelts for livestock protection have been established too. Leroy and Sasha do a great job of maintaining these practies and we are very pleased to present tem the Conservation Practices Award for 2009. We would like to Thank the Sponsor's that donated door prizes for the banquet Midwest Supply,True Value,and Pharmco
