Strip Tillage in Corn

Author: Chad Lee

Planning Unit: Plant and Soil Sciences

Major Program: Grains

Outcome: Initial Outcome

I facilitated a workshop where three farmers talked about how they are using strip tillage and cover crops to grow corn. This meeting was for farmers and sponsored by the Kentucky Corn Growers. There were several attendees who want to try to use strip tillage as well. This meeting spurred us to consider investigating strip tillage in corn.
