Healthy soil and sustainable growing

[Ken Hargesheimer <minifarms2@yahoo.com>]

Mark,

 

Where one lives, what type soil one has, etc is not important.  The principles, organic/no-till/permanent bed/drip irrigation, apply.

 

If you are farming 15 acres and have 30, put the other 15 in a cover crop. It can be a summer or winter one.  My first choice would be sudan as it produces high tonnage per acre of OM. Later use a legume.  Buckwheat is a fast one.  Then plant a winter one??
