Demonstrating Conservation Tillage Methods and Benefits Under Furrow Irrigation A Collaborative Project with University, Conservation District, Producer, and Industry Participation
Project Goals and Outputs • Field demonstration and evaluation of conservation tillage systems • Documentation and comparison of cropping inputs, including energy, fertilization requirements, weed control, labor, and equipment costs between tillage systems • Comparison of water quality (N, P, and sediment) in runoff between systems • Monitor crop, water, and soil conditions in each system • Economics of conservation tillage systems • Utilization of dynamic and innovative outreach mechanisms
