While there has been some success with organic no-till row crops, organic no-till vegetables remain a conundrum. Inadequate weed control, narrow cover crop termination windows, and planting delays related to termination are all challenges. These three bulletins are the result of on-farm research funded by North Central SARE partnership grants to look at various strategies to reducing tillage in organic vegetable systems.
