VIDEO: Savvy Tillage with Jeff Poppen Part 7


Jeff Poppen, the Barefoot Farmer, is back at Living Web Farms for a workshop highlighting his smart and resourceful minimal tillage program. Learn to use tillage the right way, to help you manage efficiently without killing the soil, and how to do it without fancy and overly-expensive equipment. Learn about the foundations of his farming principles that go back to the early part of the 20th century and how to work with nature and the soil to achieve optimal results with less work and little to no inputs. In part 7, Jeff talks about hoeing and how he maximizes the use of his tractor so that only a minimal amount of hoeing is necessary.

  1. Question…if you plough the soil by completely turning over the soil…burying the grass and weeds, wouldn't that place carbon in the soil better than the trampling of cows?

  2. Watching the series and loving every video. However, I am in the Caribbean, so a lot of this I cannot relate to but I am learning a lot. Hopefully I can implement some of what I've learnt.
