These links are a start, but probably not as comprehensive as you’d like. Both authors are very practically minded. They might point to other resources for you too.

Subject: [Market-farming] No-Till for Diversified Vegetable Production?

 

Can anyone point me to a good how-to resource for producing diversified vegetables in a no-till system?  I like the concept of eliminating or reducing soil disturbance, but don't understand how it could work practically for some vegetable crops.
