Minimum tillage may reshape Lorain County corn growing methods
A Wellington area field trial on 40 rows of corn near Charles Crile farm Rt. 18 tests minimum tillage across five plots. Lorain County leads in this debut, with Harvey Born of Amherst already practicing the method on about 100 acres. The approach aims to reduce labor, seedbed prep costs, soil compaction, and weed growth while maintaining or boosting yields, and may slowly expand to the county's 1,000 corn growers and 30,000 annual acres.
