Toyota, GAC Unveil Ammonia-Fueled Internal Combustion Engine

Prototype engine uses high compression, boost and tweaked combustion chambers to run liquid NH3 for a carbon and particulate-free exhaust stream. Will we ever see it on the farm?
If you’ve read this column very long you realize I have an interest in engines of the rotating and reciprocating varieties — those that burn energy-dense fuels and don’t require fuel tanks the size of a submarine.

Focus on the ‘4Rs’ for Higher Yields

The 2022 No-Till Farmer Conservation Ag Operator Fellow delves into the ‘4Rs’ of nutrient management: Right source, right time, right rate and right place.
