Twenty years of no-tilled double-cropped cotton and wheat in Goodyear, AZ

About twenty years ago, Ron, Robert, and Earl Rayner of A Tumbling T
Ranches in Goodyear, AZ began developing and refining no-till
double-cropped cotton and ...







For over twenty years, Ron, Robert, and Earl Rayner of Goodyear, AZ have
been perfecting a very interesting and successful system of no-tilled
double-cropped cotton and wheat at A Tumbling T Ranches in Goodyear, AZ.
Their motivations and techniques for this highly innovative system, as well
as the many very interesting things that they’ve learned over the years
about how best to implement the practices that they employ are now
chronicled in a 41-minute video that is available at the You Tube link
above.



The video captures quite a lot of very good innovation and also sheds light
on many very important aspects of conservation agriculture including risk
management, the overall value of reduced disturbance residue-preserving
practices, along with things that the Rayners have learned over the years
related to water use efficiency, soil function, and farm sustainability.


Special thanks to Ron Rayner for taking the time to share the many years of
dedicated effort in this video.

A shorter, revised version of the video will be available later this year
following the 2017 cotton harvest.
