No-Till, Strip-Till and Cover Crops Research Journal - February 2026

Each month, the conservation ag group at Cornell University offers an analysis of the latest scientific papers dealing with conservation agriculture research from around the world. For this on-going web series, our editors will be selecting several research papers from the Cornell list that will be of special interest to North American no-tillers, strip-tillers and cover croppers.

In this edition:

  • Can no-tillage and crop diversification sustain nutrient stocks in acidic and poorly-fertilized soils? Evidence from 32 years of real-world agricultural management in Paraguay.
  • The key role of local and global farmer networks in the development of conservation agriculture in California.
  • Mega-analysis of no-tillage and reduced tillage impacts on crop yields and greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Beyond the buzz: analyzing actors promoting regenerative agriculture in Europe.
