With Adam Leise, Extension Educator and Director of UNL On-Farm Research
The Nebraska On-Farm Research Network (NOFRN) is a structured network to allow farmers to test products, practices, and test decision making skills in their own fields, using their own equipment. Working with UNL Extension, farmers conduct trials on a wide array of topics ranging from fungicide, cover crops, Nitrogen, biologicals and even the use of drone imagery to determine what approach works best for their operation. In 2025, NOFRN conducted over 115 projects with reports detailing treatment differences, such as yield and disease pressure, as well as conducting economic thresholds using real application and product cost. NOFRN is farmer driven, and open to testing the many topics of agronomy and how economics affects decision making.
