Abstract

Conservation tillage--Case studies.
Ron Jirava farms near Ritzville, WA, in an area receiving 11.5 inches of annual precipitation. In this publication, Jirava discusses his tillage strategies, including his use of the undercutter sweep, and his experimentation with a no-till winter wheat–fallow rotation. This case study is part of the Farmer-to-Farmer Case Study project, which explores innovative approaches regional farmers are using that may increase their resilience in the face of a changing climate.
