[Video] Unlocking the Powers of Your Strip-Tilled Soils

Seeing a green and growing crop is often perceived as a visual validation of a healthy strip-till system. But subsurface investigation is wise to truly understand the biological stability of your soils for long-term success. For more than 35 years, seasoned agronomist Brad Forkner has worked in diverse cropping systems, advising farmers on nutrient management selection, placement and soil analysis.

With experience evaluating the nutritional needs of 25 different crops in 18 states, Forkner details when to make in-season adjustments with inputs and fertilizer placement based on soil moisture profiles, how biology affects specific crops in certain soil conditions, and goes over the cutting-edge inputs and tools that are delivering big-time ROI for strip-tillers.

You’ll Learn: How to decipher soil biology and moisture profiles, and uti lize the information to determine when to quit on a crop or when to pump it up with biologicals, plant growth regulators and nitrogen applications.
