“It’s the sunlight energy and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis, through the root exudates, through all the processes involved that put the black back in the soil. You need that living root.” – Paul Jasa
An ag engineer at the University of Nebraska, Paul Jasa has been studying no-till equipment and farming methods for 38 years. In that time, he’s come to see that no-till doesn’t just mean putting the plow away — it’s really about a systems approach to farm management that starts by understanding the importance of avoiding soil disturbance and managing residue properly to optimize soil biological activity.
In this episode of the No-Till Farmer podcast, Jasa, speaking at the 2019 National No-Tillage Conference, explains the benefits of a 100% continuous no-till system, including improved soil structure, proper nutrient cycling, better water infiltration, soil temperature management, higher crop yields, and more!
