[QUOTE="gberry, post: 601012, member: 3325"] Well, the question I have is about the actual tillage that is recommended by Yeomans. I read his first book on the second link above and found it very interesting, but had some questions about the depth of tillage and whether three passes were made back to back during conversion year tillage. The basic concept seems to be to convert the top few inches of dirt into a compost heap to improve and create new topsoil. I also don't care that much about carbon sequestration as discussed in the first link, but would love to have better soil. His approach passes the common sense test and so I am interested in some more details. I have actually ordered his most recent book, Water for Every Farm. Hopefully, it will answer some of my questions. If you are interested, there are some interesting videos on YouTube. Just search for Darren Doherty. There are about 20 5-10 minute videos that I found interesting although Mr. Doherty is definitely cashing in on environmental cleanup/carbon sequestration. [/QUOTE]
