In this No-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Copperhead Ag, we welcome Kentucky father and son no-tillers John and Alex Young to share the lessons they’ve learned from the first 55 years of no-tilling.

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.

Traveling from as far as Australia and South Africa, nearly 1,000 no-tillers made the trek to St. Louis in January to learn how to further improve their no-till practices and celebrate the 25th anniversary of the National No-Tillage Conference.
