The regenagri podcast talks with industry experts to explore the future of farming and the hot topics surrounding the global movement of regenerative agriculture.
In episode 23, Rose Riley from Control Union UK, welcomes Dwayne Beck, who managed the Dakota Lakes Research Farm for 32 years. Since its opening, the entire facility at Dakota Lakes has been managed using continuous low-disturbance no-till and diverse rotations.
We’re also joined by Blake Vince, who farms 1,200 acres in Ontario, Canada, practicing low-disturbance no-till with diverse rotations and livestock integration.
In the podcast we explore why farmers use tillage despite the impacts on soil, the typical drivers towards no-till systems and how a no-till approach to farming can improve movement of water through soil. We also delve into the costs to the farmer and savings associated with a no-till approach.
