Madison Farms Information

Madison Farms, is a 4th generation family farm, established in 1914 in Echo, Oregon. Farming techniques include minimum tillage, no-till, laser-guided land leveling, GPS controlled yield and soil field monitoring, and the use of neutron probe soil moisture monitoring systems. We have over 2 miles of stream beds protected by riparian fencing on both sides. Several of our ditches, fence rows, and field perimeters have been planted to grass for wildlife habitat. We receive and apply Bio-Solids from Oregon's metro area to help stabilize sensitive range land areas and enhance the grazing capacity of those areas. We also land apply nutrient rich reuse water from a local food processor at agronomic rates for organic fertilizer benefits. Madison Farms provides land application sites for the one stop spreading and applying of municipal bio-solids. Madison Farms reuses the effluent water from a local potato processing plant for the water and nutrient content. Madison Farms reuses the blow down water from a local 480 MW co-generation power plant for irrigated crop production. Madison Farms Is the site for 1/2 of a 64 MW wind project and crushes canola for biodiesel production. Madison Farms promotes the farming business and bio-solids process through presentations to high schools, visitors from foreign countries, and the general public.
