High-Producing Organic No-Till
By Practical Farmers of Iowa
High-producing organic no-till has long been identified as the Holy Grail of soil health. In this farminar, Brett Israel shared highlights of the successes and challenges 3Gen Organics has experienced on its path to reducing tillage in an organic farm system. From tales of 250-bushel-per-acre corn to soybean yields of just 20 bushels per acre, this farminar offered an evening of laughter and learning as we discussed alfalfa-fueled corn, no-till organic soybeans and reduced-till organic soybeans.
