No-till Producer, Hugoton, KS

Nick Vos was born in South Africa where he grew up on a vegetable farm in the Limpopo Province. Moved to the USA in 2006, became a US citizen in 2011, and currently resides in Hugoton, Kansas, with his wife Johanna, and their two girls Gianna and Nikayla. Nick farms a multitude of row crops, cover crops, and his wife Johanna raise Dorper sheep on about 900 acres that they rotate between cash crops and forages. He also owns and operates two Ag retail companies, that focus on high-yielding corn and the other one on specialty inputs and cover crops.
 
He started using cover crops in 2010, mostly interested in the Daikon radish, and its scavenging ability to retrieve nutrients from their mostly sandy, low OM fields. Regenerative Agriculture quickly became a passion for Nick and he has been leading the charge in cover crops and better rotations in their low rainfall, arid high plains region since then, also bringing the dorper flock in to manage weeds and stimulate biology.
