    Bravo! I like the stripper head, the higher stubble catches more snow, and taller stubble might help ground nesting wildlife. Pollinator strips-I hope this becomes a normal site on working farms!

    You'd solve all of your issues if you went to a shank machine like seed hawk which gives fert placement also, disc drills struggle to cut residue for shallow seeded crops like wheat. Im in northern climate trying to zero till, cool wet seeding conditions, very hard to cut straw, we have to move it

    Everyday is a learning curve and working with what you have instead of adding more acres.

    Great stuff. Love cereals as fall covers.

    Have a think about Hazelnuts, perhaps some Chestnuts?

    Really inspiring and interesting video, thanks for posting it up! And thank you Olson family, for your work and stewardship, well done! As a consumer I'd pay a premium for "no till" (maybe "permaculture" would be a better label ) bread or beer or cereal, much like "organic" foods.

    So, how do you replace the nutrients you take out without tilling whatever is left over from reaping it back into the ground?

      That's an excellent question, I can explain. If you're going corn, you're pulling nitrogen out of the soil, to put the nitrogen back in the soil, you plant soybeans,and take up other things. Each crop the should feed the next. Each time it pulls up stuff, you already have and leaves behind the stuff you need for the next crop..
      The cover crop does not produce profits, but costs less than chemicalfertilizer, retains the topsoil, prevents weeds from popping up, provides habitat for pollinators.. Your question is the first step to a very wide field of study.
      I hope i've at least made a dent into your curiosity...keep wat hing things like this..
      Go watch another youtube video from gabe brown next. It'll make more sense.

    How do you manage the Track Control? Via GPS?

    Honey can you please come and farm with me ❤I have 3 million acres we are building up the soil with chicken manure so the plants grow faster and we water them with chum is Organic fertilizer that grows plants faster than normal. I live in Texas

    Worms and fungus?
    Or are they still spraying (poisoning) the land? 🤔
