Host Jay Lynch began adopting a no-till/strip-till system about 15 years ago on his family’s Century Farm and has discovered that the key to higher yield potential, enhanced soil tilth, and effective conservation revolves around soil health.
Constant innovation in strip-till can be challenging. Clint Robinson of Sullivan, Ill., knows. His first attempt at blending conservation techniques and soil health principles came in 2012, shortly after he moved back to the family farm.
Ty Fickenscher, owner of Upward Ag Systems in Axtell, Neb., is passionate about helping farmers reap the benefits of strip-till. He stepped up to the podium at the 2022 National Strip-Tillage Conference to share how companion cropping, intercropping and relay cropping can take an operation to the next level.
