>They're all convinced no-till and cover crops are the way to go.

I believe that's more a regional trend where dry land (rain dependent, no irrigation) is predominant. Except under exceptionally dry conditions, a lot of irrigated ground is still tilled. Even then, you have to create furrows or "corrugates" to manage your irrigation, and that is tillage, though not turning over the entire surface of the field.

>Stop strip farming !!!!

>Regenerative Farming Techniques must be engaged in. The era of rip, strip, irrigate and treat has come to an end.

 

My fields have been turned once in over 40 years when I deep plowed to turn the trash and contaminated soil over to a depth of 18". I seeded back to perennial grasses and clovers. But you still have to corrugate the get the most use of your water and to control runoff. I have zero siltation because there's no soil exposed as the corrugations have grown over before water is turned in.

The grass comes off as grass hey, the clover is used for nitrogen rich compost for organic gardening. My fields have never seen a drop of herbicide, pesticide or inorganic fertilizer.

 

I raise a huge organic garden and a small orchard, enough to furnish the extended farm community here with fresh fruit and vegetables. We have been the counties Master Home Food Preserver and Master Gardener for the Extension Office.

Two of my kids also run their own organic farms raising organic market produce, eggs and livestock.
