    Indigo has given us the opportunity and support to improve our land and our income. As the carbon credit market expands, our income can keep growing with increasing carbon prices and our increasing carbon impact, because we're not just getting paid for our practice changes. We're getting paid top dollar for what we're accomplishing. We’re only getting started, and the income potential is a huge incentive for us to expand these practices.

    The problem that we needed to address was soil conservation and keeping our top soil in the fields. We turned to no-till to do that.

    We tested Indigo's biological treatment on 300 acres of wheat to start. It was a night and day difference. 10 bushels an acre more than our untreated fields.
