Strip Till Photos

The strip till rig gets ready. The front coulter through the residue, and the covering disks help insert the seed.

The strip till rig is ready to go. Using the strip system cuts costs and reduces the amount of fuel used because you don't have to go back out into the field in the fall to clean-up the residue.

Strip Till Residue

The field before the rig runs through. Corn residue left over from the crop helps reduce erosion by providing soil coverage, reducing the damaging impact that rain can have to an exposed field.
