Abstract

Dave Mosman's 1800-acre farm near Nezperce, Idaho, features gentle slopes and shallow topsoil in a high rainfall area. The growing season is short. Perennial grasses are the most important crops, with a mix of winter wheat, winter Canola, spring cereals, lentils, flax, linola, and alfalfa hay. Dave watches his fields carefully, rotating around weed and disease problems in a "use-your-crops-as-tools" approach to cropping. 8 pages.
