An Examination of Neglected Issues in Illinois No-Till Adoption Research and the Educational Implications Thereof

Abstract

dc:description

"American farmland has long been considered an inexhaustible resource. To protect this resource, ""society"", primarily through legislative pressure and educational efforts, has demanded ""Agriculture"" change from the traditional moldboard plow based farming technology to reduced tillage systems, the ultimate of which is the no-till system--placing the seeds in very narrow slots without disturbing last year's crop residue."
