Organization Narrative

<p>No-Till on the Plains Inc. is a non-profit educational organization providing information to farmers on adopting continuous no-till and other sustainable production methods, and to further develop those techniques. While adopting no-till and good agronomy (good biology) has the potential to greatly improve farmers' efficiency and profitability, many other benefits accrue to society, such as greatly reduced soil erosion of cropland, less sedimentation of rivers and lakes, better wildlife habitat in fields, and the sequestering of atmospheric carbon dioxide in soil organic matter. No-Till on the Plains, Inc. is a partnership of farmers, agribusinesses, associations, and state and federal agencies that are committed to increasing the adoption of cropping systems that will enhance soil and water quality, economic potential and the quality of life. The organization is devoted to educating farmers about how to develop economically, agronomically, and environmentally sound crop production systems through the application of continuous no-till farming techniques. Each year, No-Till on the Plains organizes and plans educational events and bus tours that allow farmers to get practical and relevant continuous no-till information from other farmers and no-till experts.</p>
