[QUOTE="dug, post: 847286, member: 5847"] I've got nothing against responsible tillage.... My wife's parents run a tight ship involving potatoes and maize grain in a responsible rotation. They have good soil that has been maintained under tillage for a while now. This talk of 15 % yield lifts as a general thing sounds huge. As always in agriculture, it depends on what short comings a system has, as to how easy it is going to be to achieve huge improvements fast. For example do you think there is anything you could do at the moment that will give anything like 15%. Maybe once in a generation does some single technology emerge that will give a step change improvement. Whereas if someone has some obvious issues then some massive gains can potentially be easily had. I know of examples where if they listened to some basic agronomic advice, I could double their yield.
