For this episode of the No-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Yetter, we’re sharing a conversation with entomologist Jonathan Lundgren about a new research paper he’s written that discusses a methodology he developed for evaluating regenerative farming practices.

An exciting lineup of speakers for the 2018 event will provide attendees with a chance to learn more about new concepts and options for healthier soils.

Former entomologist with USDA-ARS in Brookings, S.D., and his team have started a research farm “where research, education and demonstration converge to support the regeneration of agriculture.”

Agricultural Research Service (ARS) entomologist Jonathan G. Lundgren, while exploring no-till corn fields at night, has found a very different group of predators than the ones that feed during the day. It turns out that these night-time predators have a great appetite for corn rootworms, the most costly pest of corn in the world.
