Diversification, consistency are important to this Nebraska farmer

John Dolnicek of Lawrence, Nebraska says he’s never been much of a gambler.

“I like to stay diversified and stay consistent,” Dolnicek says.  “That way we’re not stretching the limit on some things I don’t feel comfortable with doing. That’s kind of my program.”

Dolnicek raises dryland (non-irrigated) soybeans, wheat and grain sorghum on his farm in south-central Nebraska. He’s also a director on the Nebraska Grain Sorghum Board.  We visited with him at a recent grain sorghum symposium in Grand Island.
