Join CT NOFA for a field day that will provide participants with resources and support in implementing no-till practices, or in transitioning to no-till and reduced tillage farming. This field day will include examples of no-till equipment, how they work, and how/when to use them. We’ll discuss how this climate smart practice helps reduce erosion, improve water retention, and increase soil organic matter, to be demonstrated by a microscopic comparison of soil samples taken from no-till vs. tilled fields, contrasting the bacteria/fungi ratio and microbial life differences between the two.
