In honor of the 25th anniversary of the National No-Tillage Conference, the staff of No-Till Farmer displayed a photo gallery at the conference in St. Louis titled “A Walk Through No-Till History.” Editor Frank Lessiter leads us through the gallery, which includes some highlights from the early editions of No-Till Farmer, no-till leaders and influencers, equipment and other products that led to greater adoption of no-till, and testimonials from farmers on how the practice changed their lives.

No-Till Farmer editor Frank Lessiter talks to several National No-Tillage Conference attendees, including the Young family, Ray McCormick and Phil Needham, about their experiences with no-till and the conference.

After reading Fifty Years of Disruptive Innovation over a recent weekend and reflecting on the many examples of innovation, passion and perseverance found in Jon Kinzenbaw's story, No-Till Farmer requested permission to share an excerpt of the book's content with our subscribers.

No-Till Farmer founder Lessiter talks about the importance of no-till to agriculture, the benefits it offers to growers, and the equipment and products that have helped the movement grow.

No-Till Farmer founder Frank Lessiter shares why he started the National No-Tillage Conference in 1992 and how it’s grown since, where he sees the future of no-till heading, and what it will take to increase the number of acres under no-till production.

While many Corn Belt no-tillers have suspected it for years, it took researchers at North Dakota State University to demonstrate how continuously no-tilled soils require less nitrogen.
