[QUOTE="SilliamWhale, post: 7018644, member: 1232"] Thing is I don't like soil tillage and I love no till and think its genuinely better way of producing crops. I've done the Holistic Management course and I think it totally stands up and makes sense as a management system. I know from practical experience that cover crops can be both heaven and hell depending on how you manage them etc. And I'd be quite happy to argue away my position on it all. There's just a chunk of stuff I'm just at best sceptical of and at worst I know its down right disingenuous. Yet it seems hard to have a discussion about because the counter argument is either "the science hasn't caught up with it", or "biology is inherently hard to measure" (it can be but that shouldn't matter) or the worst one "the information has historically been suppressed by Big Ag". There is almost a perception that there are two versions of the truth, the big ag one and the real one and its just not a rational approach. I do read plenty of books and will continue to read them (especially if free on kindle unlimited) but some of them need a damn good editor. [/QUOTE]
