On this edition of Conservation Ag Update, brought to you by CultivAce, longtime no-tiller Jim Leverich explains why 20-inch corn rows are paying off big time on his Sparta, Wis., farm. Plus, Clay Scott checks in from Precision Planting headquarters with one big thing every no-tiller should inspect on their planter this winter. For the Cover Crop Connection, associate editor Mackane Vogel reports from the Eco-Ag Conference in Madison, Wis., where new cover crop insights were in the spotlight.

Later in the episode, technology editor Noah Newman chats with independent soil health specialist Jim Hoorman about choosing the right biologicals for your system. We catch up with Carrie Vollmer-Sanders, president of Field to Market, at the Sustainable Agriculture Summit for some perspective on the importance of sharing no-till, strip-till and cover crop knowledge. And in the Video of the Week, No-Till Innovator Jimmy Emmons showcases one of his long-term no-tilled fields after a 4-inch rainfall in Leedey, Okla.
