Join this webinar to learn about challenges and opportunities in tillage, residue and weed management practices on organic farms.
Decreasing tillage and maximizing plant residue are important practices to improve the health of soil and reduce erosion. In many organic farming systems these practices can be challenging to implement due to the use of tillage for weed control. However, there are several opportunities to better manage tillage and plant residues. Join this webinar for a discussion of these challenges and opportunities in the context of organic farms in western states. This three-part series features different regions.
In the Understanding Organic Agriculture series, this webinar is presented by USDA NRCS Science and Technology.
