This week we're joined by Dresden, Ontario farmer, Mark Richards, who has adopted and adapted precision farming strategies, including implement guidance, interseeding technology and data analysis on his 3,000-acre corn, soybeans, sugarbeet and wheat operation.

For more than a decade, Dresden, Ontario, farmer Mark Richards has adopted and adapted precision farming strategies, including implement guidance, interseeding technology and data analysis on his 3,000-acre corn, soybeans, sugarbeet and wheat operation. The combination of fewer and more efficient passes through the field, precision technology and reduced tillage has contributed to a 15% reduction in fuel costs and healthier crops.

Precision farming practices are an essential part of many strip-till operations to improve accuracy and efficiency. But as ag technology continues to rapidly evolve, which products or platforms are most suitable for a strip-till system to provide the highest return on investment?

Continuing to build on the unique educational foundation of its first three events, the 4th annual National Strip-Tillage Conference will feature more than 40 different learning sessions during two strip-till-focused, knowledge-packed days in early August.
