On this edition of the Strip-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Yetter Farm Equipment, longtime strip-tiller Alan Madison shares his 8 keys to strip-till success and reveals the top takeaways from decades of on-farm trials in Walnut, Ill.
Alan Madison worked for the NRCS from 1970 to 1997, promoting no-till, strip-till and other conservation practices. He started strip-tilling his corn and soybeans in the late 1990s. Madison now strip-tills 100% of his corn-corn-soybean rotation and uses cover crops on all his acres.
The longtime strip-tiller breaks down the key components of his strip-till system, including early harvests, fall strip-till through cereal rye, planter and strip-till toolbar attachments, the incorporation of sugars with a starter fertilizer mix, in-season chlorophyll testing and much more.
