Participate for a discussion of how organic no-till works - using sound biological principles and mechanical cover crop termination - to reduce and even eliminate tillage.
Organic farming has relied heavily on tillage for weed control while conventional no-till techniques depend entirely on herbicides for weed control and effective cover crop kill. The challenges have been how to make the benefits of no-till accessible to organic farmers and how to free conventional farmers from dependency on agrichemicals. Learn how organic no-till works, using sound biological principles and mechanical cover-crop termination, to reduce and even eliminate tillage.
This webinar is sponsored by the USDA NRCS East and West National Technology Support Centers.
