The No-Till Roller/Crimper System combines cover crops with a new farm implement to allow organic farmers to effectively use no-till, for the first time. This 18 minute videotape provides a complete orientation to the no-till roller/crimper and offers an introduction to strategies for its effective use.
Produced for the Rodale Institute, "The No-Till Roller/Crimper System" answers the questions most farmers have about this approach and documents the financial and environmental benefits of the system.
Plans for building the no-till roller/crimper can be found at the Rodale Institute's website - www.rodaleinstitute.org. "This film hits the ball out of the park," said Fred Kirschenmann of the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture. "It tells a compelling story that could make farmers a lot of money."
Chris Bedford makes films and videos designed to help communities build a sustainable economy -- beginning with a local, healthy food system. "Food is the beginning. As citizens and consumers we can help turn the economy towards true ecological sustainability through our food purchases."
As an activist, Chris Bedford founded the Floyd Boulevard Local Foods Market in Sioux City, IA and the Sweetwater Local Foods Market in Muskegon, Michigan. He is currently President of the Sweetwater market - www.sweetwaterlocalfoodsmarket.org.
He also frequently speaks with his films at events and conferences. Visit his website at www.chrisbedfordfilms.com for more information.
