Regional farming practices shape soil conservation solutions
Regional practices across Canada show no single solution for all crops. Western Canada uses no till and direct seeding while Eastern Canada adopts redt seeding with zone tillage, grassed waterways and terraced farming. Ontario uses no till for wheat and soy but explores strip tillage for corn. New Brunswick reports 30 percent potato acres under conservation practices reducing topsoil losses by about 80 percent.
