No-till on the Plains Tour to Brazil  March 2010
No-till on the Plains offered the first of several in-depth tours of Brazilian no-till farming.  Over the years we have developed a key network of agriculture experts from South America while hosting them as featured speakers at No-till on the Plains Winter Conferences.  We have been invited and encouraged to come down their way and visit and the first group did this past March.   Click here to follow the group as they toured Brazil.   Another tour is currently being planned for March 2011, and information and registrations will be available in the coming months.
