Can strip till and cover crops work better together? Chris Perkins shares what changed his mind and what he’s seeing in his soils.

In this episode of Around the Farm, Tom and Andy sit down with Chris Perkins, owner of Banded Ag, at the National Strip-Tillage Conference Pre-Conference Workshop hosted by ForGround by Bayer. Chris shares his journey with strip till and cover crops, why his perspective on regenerative agriculture has changed, and how ForGround is helping support practices already happening on his farm. They also discuss soil health, conservation programs, using AI to make farm management decisions, and the importance of growers sharing their own stories.
