Nebraska Extension's history of on-farm research stretches back to 1989, when the Nebraska Soybean and Feed Grains Profitability Project brought together 20 producers in Saunders County to conduct randomized, replicated research to improve farm profitability. The success of this initiative led to the creation of the Quad Counties research group in 1998, expanding on-farm research to Clay, Fillmore, Hamilton and York Counties. The Nebraska On-Farm Research Network was established in 2012, continuing this tradition of producer-driven research across the state.

As Leise looks ahead, his goal is to push for even more research, building a knowledge base that provides economic stability and actionable insights for Nebraska farmers.
