Crops are rolling in from harvest, but moving grain down the Mississippi has nearly dried up. Low water levels are eating into exports. Plus, Flip your soil and your soil health, as we start a new series of reports.

Maybe it is a sign that we need to keep our commodities to feed our Country!!! As we hear that the world has food shortages??

I don't care what your views are on "climate change" but no-till organic farming focused on mycorrhizae and bacteria in the soil only makes sense. Tilling and synthetic fertilizers have been killing our soil for over 100 years. The invention of the gas powered tractor brought on the Dust Bowl and here where I farm in CO we still have dust bowl land. So at least for us, no-till regenerative farming makes sense both economically and environmentally. I don't care about CO2 emissions or cow farts. Without CO2 plants don't grow. We just discovered the science behind mycorrhizal fungi, bacteria, and their relationship to plants (and truly began to understand it) within the last 20 years. Most farmers still do not understand the benefits. I'm sure that will all change in the years to come, though.

Yep go no till use Roundup to control mess of weeds, then when weeds get resistant to Roundup, and then you will say, "Well I do have a couple of earthworms anyway."
