About Divan Farms

Generational Family Farming

Divan Farms is a 5th generation family farming operation in Winnebago County, IA. Our mission is to utilize the latest in farm technology and practices to sustainably produce a profitable crop. We extensively sample all acres to precisely place nutrients where they are needed and limit the potential for environmental impacts of over application. Through the use of strip-till and cover crops we are reducing water and wind erosion by keeping more plane material on the surface of the field. These strategies among others will ensure our soils stay healthy for generations to come.

Sustainable farming practices implemented:

• Strip-till
• Cover crops
• Split nitrogen applications
• Nitrogen recommendation software
• 2.5 acre grid sampling
• Stalk nitrate testing
