Farmer Panel on Experiences with Cover Crops and Soil Health - DeSutter, Hill and Emmons

This farmer plenary at the 2017 National Conference on Cover Crops and Soil Health featured farmers Dan DeSutter (Indiana), Trey Hill (Maryland), and Jimmy Emmons (Oklahoma), three of the leading innovators in their respective regions on the use of cover crops and soil health practices. These farmers have been using cover crops and no-till for many years, and they will share some of their experiences in trying new approaches to improving soil health, and the impact these practices have had on their soil and achieving their overall farm goals. Emmons and DeSutter also have livestock and will talk about the integration of cattle into their operations.
