• Strip-Till, Precision Tools Create Better ‘Balance Sheet' (no-tillfarmer.com) — A Slinger farm family is reshaping their operation by switching from conventional tillage to strip-till, easing planter stress and improving yields on thousands of acres. By pairing strip-till with precision technology, they’re cutting erosion, placing fertilizer more efficiently, and experimenting with new ways to boost both soil health and their bottom line.
