Darrell Bruggink with No-Till Farmer here. First of all, to those of you who attended the 2009 National No-Tillage Conference in Indianapolis, thank you! Our attendance of 855 was just 19 shy of an all-time record! You helped make it a great event.
I'd like to know one or two things that you picked up from the conference that you thought might really help you going into this 2009 production season, or at least might cause you to make some changes to your no-till operation.
Please be sure to leave your name and hometown. Thanks in advance for sharing.

It was an HONOR to speak in the midst of Neal Kinsey, Dr. Mulvaey and David Hula. Good speakers with a great message.
Neal and Dr. Norton verified and added to what I have learned. I came home with new enthusiasm.
The Rulon's and Marion Calmer and Jeff Martin gave me much to ponder and add to my operation. They were right on about farm management, P and K returns, the value of no-till and how to simply use strip till to get tillers converted to less tillage.
Best conference yet, good job Darrell and staff!

It was easy to feel the optimism among the speakers and the attendees at the conference. I learned some new ideas on fertilizer programs and placement as well as utilizing cover crops. These ideas I can use on my farm. I had a good time, especially in the round table discussions .Everyone was willing to share ideas on successes and failures they had experienced.

I was fascinated by the discussion on gypsum and how it affects the soil's physical and chemical properties.
Good job Frank, Darrell and your crew!

I was writng as fast as I could on that one Brian.
Super good information, same he has been telling me for many years.
I think we need more on the subject at Des Moines as so much wall board will not be manufactured this year and we should have a better shot at getting gypsum.
I would apply it on every acre if I could get it.
Great way to START notilling too.
Looks like that and cover crops are mandatory for better soil and higher yields.
