Soil Health Sounds Great—But Is It Paying Yet? 

Adopting cover crops and no-till can improve soil health over time, but what about the short-term returns? This webinar takes a look at two years of replicated trial results across Illinois to see how these conservation practices are performing. 

Learn how no-till and cover cropping—used alone or together—stack up against chisel tillage with no cover crops when it comes to soybean yield and economics. Presenters will also share data from corn–soybean and corn–wheat/soybean rotations and discuss how soil health testing fits into the cost equation. 

Presenters: Andrew Margenot, Ph.D., soil scientist and associate professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Heidi Allen Asensio, doctoral student in the Department of Crop Sciences at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
