Strip/ridge-till options also available RwNIdale Farm i meet Ltd. i� ANIMISM!' a Reduced tillage expected for area farmers this year ZURICH -This spring area farmers are likely to be using reduced tillage methods rather than cx.mpletely no -tillage planting because of last year's extremely wet weather. That's the opinion of Rick Gingerich, sales manager of CG Farm Supply in Zurich . He expects that one trip of disking could be used in fields where the com was not harvested and is still standing up quite well. He added, " Some corn may still be harvested, but I would doubt the quality obtained. For those fields disking would be part of reduced tillage. Drills will be the key this year and no -tillage will be the big thing." As to prospects for the upcoming year for farmers, Gingench said, " This should be a good year the way things are looking now compared to situations of a year ago." While he expects sales of new machinery will be on the increase, the trend of the last few years of servicing of used machinery should continue. C.G. Farm Supply's service department has been very busy all fall and winter and has lots of work lined up until spring. C.G. carries a wide variety of farm machinery to fill the needs of farm- ers regardless of the size of their acreage and the service department is on- line with Case, White New Idea and Agco White for needed parts on a next day delivery basis. Agco White and Zetor tractors are on the _display line in, Zurich. Rick Gingerich is attending a White dealers meeting later this month in Inde- pendence, Missouri when a new White tractor with horsepower in excess of 100 is expected to be introduced. White New Idea has a full line of farm equipment including planters, tillage equipment and manure spreaders and United Farm Tools has a Speedy 5000 series of drills in widths from eight to 60 feet, designed for the most stubborn soil conditions. White's no -till and narrow row attachments are the right options for to- day's conservation conscious corn and soybean grower. Despite a big swing to no -till planting, Kvernland continues to be the world's largest plow manufacturer and C.G. carries their mouldboard plow. Kvernland has done pioneer work in disease and pest control by design- ing special Variomat series mouldboards and accessories that perform complete furrow inversion. A full line of Case construction equipment is handled in Zurich includ- ing backhoes, bulldozers and skid steer loaders. C.G. Farm Supply was originated in 1962 by Cleve Gingench and his wife Margaret and now continued by family members. The company's 30th anniversary was celebrated a year ago. The staff at C.G. includes in addition to Rick Gingerich, parts manager Dennis Estep, service manager Cliff Gingerich, salesmen Paul Steckle m industrial equipment and Arnie Martin in farm equipment, office staff Margaret Gingench, Marlene Estep and Delores Gingerich and service shop employees Ken Gingerich, Dan Bisson and Dave Erb.
