The first No-till bus tour took place in Ukraine
A unique event – No-till bus tour – took place in Nikolayev region on June 16.
The participants (50+ people) visited 3 zero till farms ready to share their experience.
The tour was organized by Mikhail Draganchuk, a Ukrainian No-till farmer and Internet blogger (his YouTube channel, devoted to various aspects of No-till, is one of the most popular agricultural channels in the world).
Representatives of Agro-Soyuz Holding – Elena Dudkina (agronomist) and Eduard Romankov (Director of a machine-building factory Soyuz-SpecTechnics) – also took part in the tour.
Eduard Romankov who has 20+ years of experience in the field of sustainable agriculture and production of seeding machinery delivered a master-class on setting up of the drill’s openers. It is well known that even the best seeding machinery can make a real mess, unless it is properly set up.
The tour was successful. And based on the participant’s attitude and enthusiasm there will be more events like this in future!
