I am in Lubbock TX and can put you in touch with no-till farmers. Some have been for 30 years.

1985-2000, Dr. Morrison, TX research station, proved that permanent beds, with permanent tracks, increase yields 15%. In 2002, A D Hughes, Wolfforth, TX decided to go no-till and purchased a no-till planter. He planted the cotton, harvested the cotton, planted wheat, knocked down the wheat and he was ready to plant again. His cost went to the basement. Buster Adair [806-755-2532] has been
no-till [cotton] for thirty-five years. Steve Groff [cedarmeadowfarm.com] has been no-till [vegetables, corn] for 35 years. No-till farming requires a no-till planter and/or no-till drill. ¡It works! |
