Weed management is often cited as the top production challenge in organic systems. Organic growers primarily manage weeds with soil disturbance, which can be counterproductive to soil-health. This webinar presents a virtual field day to look at new tools that cause less soil disturbance.

Sam Hitchcock Tilton discusses management techniques that can reduce the need for later mechanical weed control. Viewers will learn about the diversity of cultivation equipment available to producers and their advantages/disadvantages; including optimizing older equipment and a summary of newer options.
