Field Crop Shop Talk

Join Norm Deets, who farms in Carroll and Ogle counties, to discuss his experiences using conservation practices and cover crops on his farm to reach his goals of protecting the land, reducing erosion and building organic matter. Norm has been no-till for the past 40 years and started cover cropping six to seven years ago. Alexa Skirmont with Precision Conservation Management will also present on the work she has been doing with Norm and dive deeper into economics of making management changes on farm, giving us a glimpse into his land with precision maps.
