Rob CokerRob Coker farms corn and soybeans in Yazoo County, Mississippi. He’s currently serving as the President of the Mississippi Corn Promotion Board and just completed his term as Chair of Delta F.A.R.M. He’s a progressive conservationist who is always looking for new technologies and practices.

He shared some of what he’s learned with the 2012 Conservation in Action Tour. Land forming and using pads and pipes is helping him keep sediment on the farm. He’s says the “older” farmers would say it’s all about drainage, drainage, drainage.
