For those interested, I'd look up Gabe Brown on Youtube he's in SD I believe, his story is interesting for sure. Another person to look at is Ray Archuleta. Also, there's a podcast "The Regenerative Journey" that has some interesting episodes, that's out of Australia, also a rather arid climate in many areas. For what I've seen, most incorporate grazing into the mix and it's less about grain farming. It's a very interesting concept that seems to me to be worth study.

I'm from Iowa originally, and back when we were farming moisture was generally not much of an issue and we employed cultivators for weed control along with "walking" the beans. Very outdated in today's world it seems. I've ran across videos on YT essentially instructing on how to use a cultivator, which frankly I was stunned by, cuz it seemed pretty natural to me, but made me realize how reliant on chemicals farming has become.

I have been removed from farming fo a long time, but I find it a fascinating topic and like observing what;'s going on in the industry. I'm in no place to recommend any method to anyone, but exercising the mind on new concepts can lead to good things.

Those side-hill combines blow my mind! We never worried much about tipping, but did think about getting stuck!

That's the guy Gabe Brown that I was looking at on the web. Seemed pretty interesting as a general concept and I'm sure the devil is in the details. Jim, thanks for posting that link, looks like it's just been for this year. I'll ask them if they can provide a zoom link for next year, that might bring them in more registrations if folks can follow along remotely
