The Energy Efficient Lighting System practice is applied to improve energy efficiency of agricultural lighting systems. This video explores how Ann Deering and her family implemented this conservation practice on their dairy in Waterville, Iowa.
Major benefits of this practice include:
• Improving energy efficiency
• Reducing energy costs
• Increasing work productivity
• Improving worker safety
• Saving on operational costs
The Conservation at Work video series was created to increase producer awareness of common conservation practices and was filmed at various locations throughout the country. Because conservation plans are specific to the unique resource needs on each farm and soil type, weather conditions, etc., these videos were designed to serve as a general guide to the benefits of soil and water conservation and landowners should contact their local USDA office for individual consultation.
