Jay Riddell and Brian Watkins help us answer the question — when’s the best time to make strips? — on this episode of the Strip-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Yetter Farm Equipment.

Forty-five percent of strip-tillers make their strips in the fall, 33% in the spring and 21% do a little bit of both according to the latest Strip-Till Farmer Benchmark Study. Sparland, Ill., strip-tiller Jay Riddell and Kenton, Ohio, strip-tiller Brian Watkins had a conversation with technology editor Noah Newman about the pros and cons of both fall and spring strip-till during the 2024 National Strip-Tillage Conference.

Riddell and Watkins also share their nutrient management strategies, strip-till truths, cover crop philosophies, lessons learned over the years and more!
