1. Laying the Groundwork

Welcome to Beyond the Crops! We’re excited to have you here.Today, we’re laying the groundwork for our podcast and planting season on our farms. We talk about the steps we take to prepare the fields before the planters roll, explain tillage practices in more depth, and what it means to be a cow-sitter.Our farms are similar in structure but the way we do things is vastly different and it’s fun to dive in deeper on these topics.Thanks to Precision Planting for supporting Beyond the Crops and being our launch sponsor.
