Soil Conservation Report
A revolution is going'on in
America's farmland. For
tunately for all of us, it is a
quiet revolution, That revolu
tion is the switch to conserva
tion tillage.
Conservation tillage is a far
ming practice that allows
farmers the alternative of plan
ting their crops in fields that
have not been plowed. It makes
use of crop residue or other
forms of land cover to reduce
erosiorll) and saves moisture for
crops being grown.
Accor:lllggg to the definition
by the U.S. Defiartment of
Agriculture’s Soil Conserva
tion Service, conservation
tillage is any crop planting
system where 30 percent or
.more of the soil surface is
covered with crop residue after
planting. Many tillage forms
and options are available to
farmers.
The use of conservation
tillage saves farmers time,
money and fuel; and can reduce
erosion by up to 90 percent. In
many parts of the country, con
servation tillage in one form or
another is a household word,
but in some areas it is just get
ting started. In some areas con
servation tillage has been used
for over two decades. It is
rapidly gaining converts. The
U.S. Department of
Agriculture predicts that by
the year 2000, more than 80
percent of America’s farmers
will be usinfilsome form of con
servation tillage.
According to an article in
the Mz{J une 1985 issue of the
Journal of Soil and Water Con
servation, farmers in the Corn
Belt and the Lake States lead
the nation with conservation
tillage. In fact, 42 percent of
America's farmers using con
servation tillage are in the Corn
Belt, 16 percent in the Lake
States, 15 percent in the Nor
thern Plains, and 8 percent in
the Ap{)alachian region. Sur
prisin§ y, only 1 percent of
those farmers using conserva
tion tillage are in the
Southeast.
Based on findings of a
USDA survey, about one-fifth
of the nation’s farmers have
adopted conservation tillage.
This practice is used primarily
to a%lrow corn, soybeans and
small grain. Of America’s crops
grown under conservation
tillage, 50 percent of the
acreage was corn and 35 per

swdyifif the use of conserva

crops including peanuts, cot
ton, potatoes, even tomatoes
and other truck crops.
Soil and water conservation
is the ‘frime reason farmers
adopted conservation tillage,
but cost and time savi:filwere
equallg important. In addition,
the adoption of conservation
tillage in 1983 was mostly done
without the aid of any govern
mental cost-sharing.
Systems range from the top
of conservation practices, no
till, to various forms of
minimum or reduced tillage.
The type of conservation
tillage used d?ends largely
upon knowledge of local
technology and customs, soils,
weed control and needs of in
dividual farms. The bottom
line for most farmers to know
is that a conservation system
suitable for their t{pe of opera
tion is available. Farmers can
learn more about conservation
tilla(fe from several sources, in
cluding contacting the
USDA's Soil Conservation Ser
vice or the local office of the
Cool&erative Extension Service.
any land grant colleges
offer farmers an opportunity to
view conservation tillaie
systems at field days, field
trails and other outreach ac
tivities. In recent years, farm
magazines have been inund
tated with articles about the
pros and cons of conservation
tillage. Agribusinesses such as
equipment and chemical
dealers also have materials
available.
Mang' farmers have learned
a fireat eal about conservation
ti aie by asking neighbors
who have made it work on thei
farm.
Many organizations spon
sor tours, demonstrations and
field trails, including local soil
and water conservation
districts.
A big help to growers in
terested in seeking information
is the Conservation Tillege In
formation Center (CTIC)
located in Fort Wayne, IN.
CTIC is a joint project of the
National Association of Con
servation Districts,
agribusiness, governmental
agencies, private organizations
and individual farmers. The
Center provides newsletters,
information materials and
resource references.
In the May 1985 issue of
“No-Till Farmer,'' Editor
Frank Lessiter commented
that the most limitir‘lig factor
holding back more wi espread
adoption of conservation
tillaqe is simp(lfi' an attitude
problem. Regardless of the cur
rent financial envirozlxement fi:ln
agriculture, once people are ful
ly sold on ltlllle benef?ts :fi con
servation ti , especially no
till, they will?:fieange and adopt
the system.
Yes, American agriculture
has undergone many revolu
tions, but many experts agree
that conservation tillage is the
most rapidly spreading prac
tice since the adoption of
hi{lbnd seed corn. Conservation
tillage may be a quiet revou
tion throughout America, but
it is growing, and it is here to
stay.
Vacations Difficult
To Handle For Some
By CATHERINE
yBOARDMAN
To some people vacations
are a miserable experience.
“When a person has dif
ficulty with the idea of taking
a vacation, he usually has the
wrong attitude about what a
vacation is or should be,"” said
Dr. Willard E. (%uillian. 111,
associate J)ro essor of
psychiathian health behavior
at the Medical College of
Georgia in Augusta.
By definition a vacation is
a period of rest and freedom
from activity. Vacations ought
tobea dpleasant time for relax
ing and getting away from the
pressures and stress of day-to
day living, according to Dr.
Quillian.
“Manfi people equate vaca
tions with being lazy or non
productive. Usually those that
work really hard and do a good
job feel like lazy bums on vaca
tion. These people's perception,
or I think misperception, leads
to %’oblems.' he said.
r. Quillian described a
typical encounter with a person
who has trouble dealing with
the idea of vacations. “I'll
discuss taking a vacation with
the person and they'll look at

BAD PICKLES

experts.
me and say, ‘You want me to
take off and lay around doing
nothing?' In response I say,
‘No, I just want you to get
away from your job for a short
period of time.’ "
Most large corporations re
quire their employees to go on
vacation because when a per
son works continuously
without taking the time to ade
3uately rest, his efficiency goes
own and burnout occurs.
Some people avoid vaca
tions because they are afraid
they'll go back to work and will
not have been missed. “It's a
two-edged sword. We don't
want to leave because we feel
we're so indispensable and
things won't run right without
us. On the other hand, we can't
leave because we may find out
or others may find out we're
not indispensable,”” Dr.
Quillian sais.
To return to work after a
vacation and have a co-worker
say, “‘Oh, I didn't realize you
had been gone'’ can be
devastating. ‘“That's about the
worst we could hear,” Dr.
Quillian said.
Taking time oft is not
wrong. In fact, it's a vital part
of the human experience.
