Relay Cropping Packs 1-2 Punch for Strip-Tiller
Iowa strip-tiller Doug Adams breaks down his relay cropping system in this recap article from a recent Practical Farmers of Iowa Field Day. “It’s not a high-management system the way I do it,” Adams says. “If you haven’t grown small grains before, grow them alone to learn about them first. Then try using them in a relay crop system. You’re always going to learn something.”
Strip-Till Among Best Systems for Managing Residue
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness crop innovation specialist Ian McDonald discusses residue management strategies in this interview with RealAgriculture. During the conversation, McDonald points to strip-till as a practice that’s gaining traction in his neck of the woods. “It lets you mix your fertilizers in … and makes for a really nice seedbed because it warms up and it dries out faster,” McDonald says, reflecting how growers balance residue retention with seed-zone conditions.
Farmers Share Lessons Learned from 150 Cropping Seasons
