Taking tillage out of organic field crop production

In an effort to improve soil health and add resilience to growing systems, in collaboration with Cornell University, this 3-year trial is looking at producing field crops in no-till roll and crimp systems. Several different cover crop and cash crop combinations are trialed. In addition to yield, several other factors are measured including weed suppression, pest pressure, soil moisture, and crop growth. The trial will be completed in 2022.
