Time now for our Video of the Week. Jimmy Emmons checks in from Oklahoma to show how his long-term no-till field held up after getting pounded by rain. Jimmy, take it away!

We just received 4 inches of rain the last 2 days here. This is about a 200-acre field. There’s no standing water, no runoff water in this field. It’s had a living continuous root now for 10 years with no-till. Making effective rainfall is the goal.”
