Kastens Inc. Farms is dedicated to conducting and supporting on-farm research efforts as a means to test new methods, treatments and ideas as well as to extend valuable research coming from the small-plot world of research farms and laboratories to the whole farm level. We have been members of the Kansas Agricultural Research Association (KARA) for seven years. Our strong connections to both Kansas State University and Kansas University allow us to evaluate many modern technologies, methods, and advanced statistical and econometric modeling in an on-farm framework. Please check out our recent on-farm research results listed below and do not hesitate to call or email with any questions, comments or suggestions. All files are pdf versions of MS powerpoint files.
