Hey guys, Zach here, and I wanted to let you guys know that field work is brought to you in part by General Mills.

General Mills is partnering with farmers and suppliers to advance regenerative egg practices on a million acres of farmland by 2030. All right.

It's official.

I'm Zach Johnson.

I'm Mitchell Hora.

And this is the fieldwork podcast.

We're going to talk today on the fieldwork podcast about tillage and choosing your

tillage system.

There's a wide array here of different options that farmers can choose.

And there's a lot of benefit to using tillage, such as preparing the seed bed,

letting that soil dry out, and get the conditions correct to plant into.

And now there's a lot of farmers who are looking at reducing tillage because it does

make us a little bit more susceptible to things like erosion and soil loss. But if we are going to

reduce erosion, we have to prepare the seed bed or reduce tillage. We have to prepare the seed

bed in other ways. So to join us today in our conversation about tillage in the studio, we have

Jody DeYoung Hughes with the University of Minnesota.

We're also talking with Mike Langseth.

He's on Skype and is a farmer in North Dakota.

Instead of screwing it up, we'll just let you guys kind of introduce yourselves.

Jody, why don't we start with you?

Give us a little bit about your background and share with us some of your wisdom

here today. Zach tells me that you're famous, so sitting with a famous person. Famous.
