Productive agriculture depends on healthy soil. Soil guarantees that nutrients are made available in sufficient amounts during a plant’s life cycle and it holds water that is then available to plants. It also provides many critical ecosystem functions that are necessary for life. In this free publication from Penn State University, you’ll learn how you can protect this valuable resource through no-till.

Researchers found that a grass and legume cover crop combination produced the most biomass and reduced emergence of glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth by half.

Scientists at the John Innes Centre in the U.K. have discovered an important component in the process of nitrogen fixation in plants.

La Crosse Seed recently launched LINK, a new inoculant tailored to inoculate any legume cover crop mix in one product.

Justin King and Bruce Unruh of Burlington, Colo., discuss how they’re making no-till and a diverse array of cover crops work on their 3,000-acre farm where they raise wheat, corn, soybeans and milo.

Peter Rost Jr., who no-tills 3,500 acres of corn, soybeans and rice near New Madrid, Mo., talks about the cover crops he's using ahead of corn and shares tips for termination.
