The longtime Holtwood, Pa., no-tiller and cover crop producer will go over some alternative weed control strategies he’s seen in the field, including using cover crops and roller-crimpers, as well as other mechanical innovations, that can help growers extend the life of the herbicides on their farm and improve their effectiveness.
