Equipment and Automation Tools for Mechanical Weed Control

Sliding hitches for cultivators, basic GPS guidance, autosteer, etc. What do all these terms mean? Join Roger, Mary and Jacob to learn more about these tools and how they put them to work on an organic farm. They will share a broad enough perspective to provide value to any farmer interested in mechanical weed control: from a 20-acre vegetable farmer with a 4-row cultivator to a 2,500-acre farmer with a 12-row cultivator.
