*Conservation Agriculture is an ecosystem approach to regenerative
sustainable agriculture and land management based on the practical
application of context-specific and locally adapted three interlinked
principles of: (i) Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil disturbance
(no-till seeding/planting and weeding, and minimum soil disturbance with
all other farm operations including harvesting);  (ii) permanent
maintenance of soil mulch cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops);
and (iii) diversification of cropping system (economically, environmentally
and socially adapted rotations and/or sequences and/or associations
involving annuals and/or perennials, including legumes and cover crops),
along with other complementary good agricultural production and land
management practices. *

Cover crops have proven benefits for soil health. A recent Iowa Soybean
Association study shows that cover crops can also reduce the input costs
associated with growing crops. Read more in this article from the

Ultra-Low Disturbance No-Till Reduces Soil Loss, Compaction Concerns
<https://lessiter.omeclk.com/portal/wts/uemcnc-cq0-baAesb0E-%7C%7Cgd-Emf0kPxk-jwPNTc>

Several years ago, Lewis Krueger wasn’t happy with the erosion taking place
on many of the 700 acres he farms near Brillion, Wis. Along with the help
of government conservation funding, he invested considerable dollars, time
and effort into combatting soil loss problems in eroded areas and waterways.
