Scientific American: Adoption of No-till Farming Practices
Regents Professor of soil science John Reganold and USDA-ARS soil scientist David Huggins have co-authored an article appearing in the July 2008 issue of Scientific American on the adoption of no-till farming practices. A preview is available. Read more.
Organic wave—Produce in demand, farm to triple size
Two decades ago, organic agriculture was a fringe movement. It was generally ignored by land-grant researchers when John Reganold began comparing the soil quality, food nutrition, flavor and environmental impacts of conventional and organic methods. Read more.
