Conservation programs often lack information on program performance and impacts, so a fail-fast approach with rapid testing and adjustment is recommended to improve program processes and verify assumptions.
Conservation programs often operate for many years with little information on program performance or impacts. A better process would encourage programs to fail fast-in other words, to implement rapid testing to learn and adapt early, and thereby avoid wasting resources. Here, we present a fail-fast approachs applied in a multiyear field trial program that sought to improve soil health in the US Cornbelt on farmland owned by nonoperating landowners. While failing fast requires investment and a supportive team culture, we recommend that this approach to program design, with metrics tailored to the program context, be used early and frequently throughout planning and implementation phases to improve program processes and test assumptions well before final outcomes are detectable.
