AEM is a voluntary, incentive-based program that helps farmers make common-sense, cost-effective and science-based decisions to help meet business objectives while protecting and conserving the state’s natural resources. Farmers work with local AEM resource professionals to develop comprehensive farm plans using a tiered process:

· Tier 1 – Inventory current activities, future plans and potential environmental concerns.

· Tier 2 – Document current land stewardship; assess and prioritize areas of concern.

· Tier 3 – Develop conservation plans addressing concerns and opportunities tailored to farm goals.

· Tier 4 – Implement plans utilizing available financial, educational and technical assistance.

· Tier 5 – Evaluate to ensure the protection of the environment and farm viability.
