On this episode of Conservation Ag Update, brought to you by Bio Till Cover Crops, we pay a visit to Christian County, Ky., the home of the first-ever commercial no-till plot, for a conversation with John Young about how strip-tillers can potentially cash in on the 45Z tax credit.
Independent crop consultant Lee Briese checks in from Jamestown, N.D., to explain why cover crops are like wrenches and how no-tillers can get more bang for their buck with them.
In the Cover Crop Connection, Mackane Vogel gets the scoop on Waterville, Wash., no-tiller Douglas Poole’s cover crop playbook.
Later in the episode, we get an up-close look at new corn head technology at Drago headquarters in Fenton, Iowa.
In the Video of the Week, Strip-Till Innovator Chris Perkins shows us one of his strip-tilled cover crop fields just a few days after a 300-bushel corn harvest.
