W/ A. (Bill) Wickett, Manager of Tillage
Education, \or the Glencoe Division, Portable
ElevaW wilt present a slide and film program
showing the close relation and benefits of the
correct tillage system to the growing plant.
You can benefit from his wide range of
knowledge on this subject. Having worked with
many farmers and Extension people throughout
the United States and Canada, Mr. Wickett, a
farmer himself, relates his thinking and ex
perience with the chemical, biological, and
physical actions within the soil. The tillage you
choose determines how well you will control your
decay system, your soil aeration, your capillary
water movement, and ultimately, your yield!
