Soil Health has been realized in Minnesota to provide multiple benefits not only to the environment but also to production agriculture. The Minnesota Soil Health Coalition's birth is due to producers implementing Soil Health practices and understanding the importance of a producer driven, producer led Soil Health organization in Minnesota to provide information, support and networking.
Ray's demos never get old. Watching from Tanzania where we are practically the only no-till/cover crop farmers in our country. We get big downpours but have virtually no run-off.
Hi, it is very interesting, I have not seen evidences of no-till practises there, I have worked in Tanzania recently to help close compliance gaps re to hazardous waste management practises in remotes areas and disseminate low cost and low tech practises to. Could you send link to your results? Ilia
@@ilyarogozhin8630 most obvious is our yields of 9t/ha in dryland situations despite poor seed genetics (compared to the US) whilst country average is less than 2t/ha.
I enjoy learning more on farming, but to old to start farming at 65. Grew up on small horsedrawn farm equipment, 30 acres including fresh vege rd side stand, w 5 acres tobacco. Later 100 acres ,5 acres handpick tomatoes. At 21 left farm did welding, construction, now semi drvr. ( Farmers ) Thank You.
Out of respect for very system that yielded the best farmland on the continent. A 60ft strip of native prairie, restored on at least 1 side of every 80 acres, would be admirable.
How could i get involved in this? Im local and over the last year or so ive really wanted to get into agronomy, permaculture, and rebuilding our soils. How could i go about getting involved in this or other things like this?
