Make Your No-Till Fields More Slug Resilient

On this episode of Conservation Ag Update, brought to you by Martin-Till, no-tillers from across the world weigh in on the million-dollar question, “How do you control slugs?”
In the Cover Crop Connection segment, associate editor Mackane Vogel pays a visit to no-tiller Jay Baxter for an up-close look at the impact cover crop mixes are having on his Georgetown, Del., farm. Plus, No-Till Living Legend and Conservation Ag Operator Fellow Ray McCormick shows how balansa clover, crimson clover and annual ryegrass paid off after 5 inches of rain in southern Indiana.

Where is the info on slugs?

[@NoTillFarmer]

The first segment of the episode covers slugs

@@NoTillFarmer ok. I was hoping you would have a definitive cure. I never had the problem until last year. I have only a home garden so I was hoping there was a product that would be ok for an organic garden. Right now, I go out every morning with a salt shaker!

@@debbiesorganicgarden We have some prior coverage on slugs as well that may be of interest. Feel free to sift through and see if anything here applies more directly to what you'd be looking for: www.no-tillfarmer.com/search?q=slugs
