Benefits of No-till Production
• Decreased Erosion– Especially important on Highly Erodible Soils
• Better soil structure/aggregate stability• Accumulation of soil organic matter• Increased water infiltration• Tillage/cultivation is not exposing new weed seeds• Fewer decrease on fuel/equipment expenses
Remember soil benefits are long term benefits!!

Challenges of No-till Production
• Finding/building equipment that is “No-till Ready”
• Managing Weeds• Managing residue and overwintering pests
– Increased need for good crop rotation• Understanding field management strategies• No-till production is not suited for all
vegetable crops equally• “But you have to work the ground!”
