Experienced agronomist Mike Petersen to share tips on nutrient uptake and targeting your fertility program at the 2015 National Strip-Tillage Conference in Iowa City, Iowa.

Mahdi Al-Kaisi, assistant professor department of agronomy at Iowa State University, discusses the benefits of strip-till vs. conventional tillage practices, to include better water infiltration, residue cover, soil-warming effects and minimized nutrient deficiency. He also discusses how a complete system can positively impact plant emergence and crop yields.

When it comes to saving money, strip-tiller David Legvold has a nugget to share. After the Northfield, Minn., strip-tiller shared results of the research on nitrogen response in strip-tilled corn that he completed in 2012, I asked about his fuel use for strip-till vs. conventional tillage.
