🌱25 Years of Success With No-Till & Cover Crops! 🍀 🌽

[@Kitchissime]

I love this field without bare earth.

[@leandrosantin9192]

Very good Lance. I'm agronomist in Brazil, and agree with you the importance of cover crop to preserve soil and increase the harvest.

[@lanceklessigregenerativeag7901]

Rye-T-On. We owe it to the generations that follow us to care for and regenerate our soils.

[@patrickday4206]

It's just getting started with what's possible!

[@vivalaleta]

Right!

[@TheNewMediaoftheDawn]

That’s great, building soil is so important, hopefully more farmers will do this without simply round-up and GMO’s...

[@brianstahl9940]

Keep it up good work!

[@lanceklessigregenerativeag7901]

Thanks Brian! Myron and his family have a deep appreciation for the soil and to always be learning. Thankful to be learning alongside some awesome farmers! BEST...Lance

Γειά σας..... θα ήθελα να μάθω παρά πολύ για όλες αυτές τις πρακτικές καλλιέργειας..... ποία τα πλεονεκτήματα και μειονεκτήματα της περίπτωσης οργώματος και μή οργώματος..... ευχαριστώ πολύ προκαταβολικά για το χρόνο σας..

[@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754]

Nice!

[@craiganderson3952]

It's an amazing practice that nature has been doing since the day after dot. I really wish the farmers around where I live would at least look into it. Seeing bare fields of dirt makes my soul sad... I appreciate the video, cheers mate!!

[@dequavisjones4869]

I've adopted it. Work with mother nature, not against her.

[@terraint3697]

Awesome that they are using this method, but hope we can all push more people to grow their food locally without unsustainable expensive equipment like those big John Deer tractors.

[@mikeschumacher9715]

Did you just say G'day folks? Ahhh Minnisota (Southern Canada), that explains it.

[@nodigBKMiche]

😂

[@dyankurniawan4816]

Thans your information

[@wallyyuriy8912]

Interested in these practises. Just curious how u get the crop u want to harvest to grow with the competition of cover crop without glyphosate application?. Thanks

[@leelindsay5618]

Are they grazing cover crops or cover crop residues? And how much diversity are they at so far? 3-5 way blends or have they gotten over 8 way blends?

[@lanceklessigregenerativeag7901]

Great question! There aren't any cows on this farm.....yet! Mostly 1-3 way mixes that are mostly comprised of winter cereals though Myron has tried applying cover crops mixes w radishes earlier in fall via airplane. With time I and trying newer techniques (inner seeding and possibly drone seeding) there will be huge opportunities to increasing seed mix diversity and vary the timing. thanks for the questions.

[@mikeross4]

Why do three people give this video a thumbs down when his results speak for themselves?

[@01mustang05]

Among NUMEROUS possibilities, a dislike might prevent similar video type recommendations for uninterested individuals; stop being so narrow minded!

[@mikeross4]

What a stupid comment, if people are not interested in the subject then jog on and look at something else!

[@dequavisjones4869]

Well clearly the massive herbicide company's will dislike this. Also the theives which make the fertilizer will dislike this method. I farm 400 ac and have switched, wow the dirt turns into soil fast. However we have a long way to go.

[@mikeross4]

@@01mustang05: Hi Some one baby, just go and lie down in a dark room for a while and you will feel a whole lot better.

[@mikeross4]

@@dequavisjones4869 Agreed!

[@FriendlyCleaningKC]

I’d like to pitch this to the farmers farming our land in north eastern MO, what are the simplest cover crops to start with that won’t cause a lot of issues when it’s time to terminate them in the spring?

[@lanceklessigregenerativeag7901]

Cereal rye, winter wheat and triticale are solid options but depends on objectives.

[@ChanceChelios]

So is a cover crop a live plant or the leaves or sown crop laid out on top of a field?

[@vivalaleta]

It's live. Then you just knock it down and plant through it. That's how to build up your soil.

[@ChanceChelios]

@@vivalaleta so what do you mean by knock it down?

[@vivalaleta]

@@ChanceChelios Here is the guy to answer your questions on cover crops. I could listen to him all day...sometimes I do?

[@tomkelly8827]

surely the land there can produce much much more then it did before with all that organic matter building up above and below that soil

[@markriegler430]

How many lbs/ac ofvrye did you broadcast in march?

[@lanceklessigregenerativeag7901]

Good day Mark, Thanks for the question.... pretty sure Myron was right around 1 bu/ac.

[@mitchvaughn5977]

Whats ph?

[@htinaungshien6384]

May I see the soil after 25 years condition? Please may I know.

[@Kitchissime]

Be pretty sure it's high in o.m.

[@MrNightpwner]

No ones a John deer fan, they have no other options.

[@weekendfarmer9375]

No till = no yields. if they did tillage they would be growing 280 bushel corn and 80 bushel beans.. ask me how I know

[@bigwhane8603]

What’s he doing with the drill?

[@Jorrie86]

Drilling 😁

[@vivalaleta]

Why are you still just growing soy and corn? DIVERSIFY.
