SUMMARY:Virtual Good Idea Shop Talk
DESCRIPTION:This free\, virtual meet-up series is for producers who want to exchange ideas and advice for troubleshooting on-farm challenges related to improving soil and water resources. \nHow it works\nIn each Shop Talk\, a producer will kick off the conversation by “pitching” a question or challenge they have related to an in-field or edge-of-field conservation practice for the group to workshop. This producer is called the “pitcher.” \nThen the group talks it out and problem solves together\, with opportunities to share your own experience and soak up the lessons others have learned. \nThe focus is on conversation and learning together as peers – there are no formal presentations from “experts.” So come ready to be an active participant. \nFor this session\, Michigan farmer Clay Ottoni will pitch this question: What features do you like best on a no-till drill? \nRegister Here\nLearn More
