Max Armstrong contrasts two events about a month apart – National Agriculture Day in March and Earth Day in April. The American Farm Bureau Federation points out some facts about farms and the environment. The organization points out that farms today produce more food with fewer resources than ever. And Max shares how technology helps maximize productivity while minimizing inputs.

Farm Progress America is a daily look at key issues in agriculture. It is produced and presented by Max Armstrong, veteran farm broadcaster and host of This Week in Agribusiness.
