After planning for their usual 700-person conference, No-Till on the Plains realized they must go virtual this year.
Instead of the comradery and more than one dozen speakers, the conference features three authorities on regenerative farming at the 25th Annual No-till on the Plains Winter Conference on Jan. 26. We re going to make farmers think about how they can produce crops a little differently, said Steve Swaffar, executive director of No-Till on the Plains.
No-till on the Plains is a nonprofit educational organization that provides information for producers to adopt high-quality, continuous no-till systems and information on soil health.
Swaffar understands the one-on-one intimacy present in in-person conferences will not be available this year, but he thinks the three speakers will challenge his audience and make them think about producing healthy soils.
