Unlocking the Powers of Your No-Tilled Soils
A “green and growing crop” is often perceived as a visual validation of a healthy no-till system. But subsurface investigation is wise to truly understand the biological stability of your soils for long-term success. For more than 35 years, seasoned agronomist Brad Forkner has worked with diverse cropping systems, advising farmers on nutrient management selection, placement and soil analysis. With experience evaluating the nutritional needs of 25 crops in 18 states, Forkner simplifies when to make in-season adjustments with inputs based on soil moisture, how biology affects specific crops in certain soil conditions and reviews the cutting-edge inputs and tools that deliver big-time ROI for no-tillers.
