No-Till Discussion Group

January 11, 2018


Please join with other no-tillers to share experiences. Jim Hershey has been practicing no-till for 25 years+ and cover cropping for 15. He owns and operates a 600 Ac livestock and grain farm located in Elizabethtown, PA & has been operating a Crop Mgt Service that covers several thousand acres. Jim recently installed a ZRX roller on this corn planter to be able to roll and plant into green cover. This has helped reduce weed pressure, less herbicide, build organic matter while conserving moisture and nutrients. Featuring: Jim Hershey, President of the Pennsylvania No-Till Alliance


We will meet in the Conference Room over the Rotary Parlor
