We also saw a big equipment reveal at the National No-Tillage Conference. Martin debuted a brand-new row cleaner. Let’s check it out in our Video of the Week.
Reducing compaction will definitely help with that soil health trajectory, and one way to do that is by having the right tire pressure in the field. Ag tire expert Ken Brodbeck was on hand to teach us about central tire inflation systems and clear up some common misconceptions about tires.
Tom Cotter had the audience on the edge of their seats with his primetime presentation on the true potential of soil health. Fresh off his Leopold Conservation Award-winning year, the Austin, Minn., no-tiller compared his soil to a bank. Farming practices are the deposits and the withdrawals, and as he explains here, that’s an easy way to measure your soil health.
You can count on one hand the number of people who have attended each and every single one of our now 34 National No-Tillage Conferences. Cole Camp, Mo., no-tiller Bryan Von Holten is one of them and I had a chance to catch up with him in between sessions last week in St. Louis.
You never know who you’re going to run into during those networking breaks in the hallways. We caught up with Jeff Martin, who’s been no-tilling in Mt. Pulaski for decades. And during our conversation we discovered he’s doing something very unique with biologicals.
We’re back from the 34th National No-Tillage Conference, and what an inspiring week it was in St. Louis with hundreds of conservation-minded farmers from all over the world. It all started with a pair of pre-conference workshops led by a trio of No-Till Innovators in Kris Nichols, Phil Needham and Bill Lehkmuhl.
Last episode, we toured the TerraMax facility, today we’re stopping by the 39 North ag tech innovation hub in St. Louis, where more than 35 growing companies call home. Let’s check it out.
Dr. Rishi Masalia, program director, 39 North, takes us inside the ag tech and plant science innovation district in St. Louis. More than 35 growing ag tech companies call 39 North home, where farmers, scientists and innovators share ideas about cutting-edge equipment and technologies.
The verdict is notable for two reasons: it's the fifth consecutive such jury trial the chemical manufacturer has one involving Roundup and its active ingredient, glyphosate, and the first such trial involving multiple defendants.
