Soil Consulting and Crop Consulting in Illinois. You may call it soil testing, soil sampling, or soil health management, but it is more than that. These are my daily or weekly travels in soil and crop consulting and my observations in the agricultural world.

Effects of No-Till on Soil Organic Carbon
I previously shared information from Dr. Ken Olson of the University of Illinois concerning whether or not No-Till increases Soil Organic Carbon. Dr. Olson has recently teamed up with other researchers in the Midwest to take a more broad look at the subject. In this news article No-Till soil organic carbon sequestration rates are questioned by Dr. Olson and others. Let's be clear that nobody is saying that No-till is a bad thing. Dr. Olson is dedicated to soil conservation and the positive effect that No-till has on soil loss is not questioned.
