BRAD MOORE, A WY'EAST STAFF MEMBER AND PROGRAM ENGINEER WITH ENERGY TRUST ATTENDS THE WORKSHOPS HOSTeD BY SUSTAINABLE NORTHWEST TO CONNECT DIRECTLY WITH LOCAL PRODUCERS ABOUT THEIR UPGRADE OPTIONS
e-farms - THE FUTURE OF FARMING
Wy'East is partnered with Forth, Sustainable Northwest, Bonneville Environmental Foundation, and Rusted Gate Farm to expand rural electrification and fuel a clean agricultural economy. The team is setting out to demonstrate the many benefits of electrifying heavy equipment, from fuel and maintenance savings, to reduced greenhouse gas emissions and improved health conditions. Three electric tractors have been purchased and are rotating to different locations around the Pacific Northwest to be tested with different farmers.
Wy’East Resource Conservation and Development Area Council, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)3 development organization serving the Pacific Northwest. Funding contributions are tax deductible.
Wy'East delivers education, outreach and on-the-ground technical assistance to agricultural producers and rural small businesses to accelerate the demand for energy efficiency and renewable energy project.
For Wy'East to continue this challenging work we depend upon funding from grants, contracts to deliver technical support, and contributions from donors that believe in our mission. Please consider contributing to this very important work. We believe our work makes an important difference in the rural areas of our region. Please click on the Donate Now Button. - Thank you!!

Advanced Precision Irrigation 2.0
Wy’East priority is agriculture irrigation energy and water efficiency to accelerate the adoption of technologies and approaches by irrigators. We understand the how to work with Farmers. WyEast continues to work in this challenging area because we believe in the importance of a balanced ecosystem.
The goal outcomes allow irrigators improve the inefficient use of water by 10 to 30% while maintaining yields, crop quality, and profitability. Improve water quality by reducing runoff & tailwater, and nutrient loss. Increase irrigation pumping system energy efficiency by 10 to 20%. The long-term outcome will reduce the amount of water and energy needed to irrigate our crops; while improving the bottom line for the Farmer.
