Brief Project Summary:

This study will evaluate the potential for raised bed tillage practices in the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota. This research is a collaborative effort between the University of Minnesota, North Dakota State University and Pioneer Hi-Bred International. The project is attempting to determine the potential for this system of management to increase yields of soybeans and rotational crop for producers in Minnesota, North Dakota who are impacted by excessive water throughout the growing season.
