At last week’s National Strip-Tillage Conference in Madison, Wis., I had a chance to catch up with Gary Zimmer, also known as the father of biological farming, who was attending the conference in hopes of learning more about how strip-till can fit into his biological farming practices. 

At an upcoming waterhemp management plot tour on O’Brien Family Farm in Brooklyn, Wis., I’ll be hearing from Rodrigo Werle, weed scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as well as others as they walk us through their weed suppression research.
