Increasing Organic Matter in a Corn, Soybean, Cereal Rye Rotation

Steve Berger farms in Southeast Iowa on a corn, soybean and swine operation.  The family has no-tilled for 37 years and has used cover crops that last continuously the last 15 years.  The farm is presently 100% cover cropped with cereal rye every year to reduce soil erosion and building soil organic matter. Switching to no-till early his career was one of the best farm management decisions he ever have made. Steve will share his experiences with the audience.
