A No-Till Blast from the Past

Don’t Forget the Basics of No-Till
This presentation from Dwayne Beck discusses tried and true agricultural practices to improve soil quality and manage available water, including no-till and utilizing crop rotations that optimize soil carbon, nutrient cycling and water use.
Why Isn’t No-Till Talked About More Often As A Climate Change Solution?
When we talk about climate change solutions, we often hear the same buzzwords: renewable energy, electric vehicles, recycling and cutting down on plastic. But what if there was an incredibly powerful climate solution that almost no one is talking about?
Regenerative agriculture isn’t just another farming technique — it’s a revolutionary way of growing food that could reverse climate change, restore soil health and increase food security all at the same time. Yet, despite its enormous potential, it barely gets the mainstream attention it deserves.
Five Generations on the Farm: Conservation, Crops & Commitment
Farming isn't just a job — it's a legacy. This fifth-generation farmer shares how his family has cared for the land since the 1830s, adopting conservation practices to keep the soil productive and in place. Learn about his approach to nitrogen management, crop rotation, no-till practices and how technology helps maximize efficiency while protecting the land for future generations.
Perennial Clover Cover Crops and Managing Crop Rotations to Reduce Tillage
In this video from Climate Resilient Organic Vegetable Production, Wisconsin grower Kat Becker discusses how she manages crop rotations on her diversified vegetable farm to reduce tillage, as well as Massachusetts grower Lincoln Fishman who shares how he manages his perennial clover cover crop system to minimize cash crop competition and maximize ecosystem benefits.
