Kinsey First Announced Speaker For 2014!

Neal Kinsey

Consultant Neal Kinsey will offer up his best and brightest no-till soil-building tips at the 22nd annual National No-Tillage Conference in Springfield, Ill., from January 15 to 18, 2014.

The owner of Kinsey's Agricultural Services in Charleston, Mo., has authored the book Hands-On Agronomy, which addresses ways to feed and manage the soil so it performs at optimal levels for crop production. Kinsey was a popular presenter at the 2009 event in Indianapolis.

More details on Kinsey's presentations will be provided later, as well as the names of more speakers as they become available. In the meantime, you can download the 2013 program to see the quality speakers who annually present at the National No-Tillage Conference.

Record Crowd Of 1,153 No-Tillers Attend In Indianapolis!

No-tillers really made a mark on the 2013 event, with 1,153 attendees packing the Hyatt Regency in Indianapolis to make the event memorable and beat the previous attendance record of 911 set in St. Louis in 2012. Those numbers included more than 530 first-time attendees, besting the previous record of 350.

Online registration for the 22nd annual event in Springfield, Ill., from January 15-18, 2014, is now available. You can also download the registration form. The Early Bird registration rate of $259 ($232 for additional farm or family members) is a $90 savings off the onsite rate.
