In a continuing effort to promote the use of conservation tillage systems throughout Huron County, the Huron Soil and Water Conservation District, in co-operation with the Huron Soil and Crop Improvement Association, is developing a list of people who have conservation tillage and planting equipment which they would be willing to make available to other farmers. The Equipment Availability List is being developed in an attempt to compile a ready reference of farmers who will make equip- ment available to others, whether on a rental basis, custom basis, or cost-sharing arrange- ment. This will allow persons interested in using a piece of equipment the opportunity to try it on their farm, their soil, and their residue and management system without the Targe capital expense involved in a direct purchase of this equipment, The equipment sharing concept may also allow the purchaser of a piece of equipment (i.e. chisel plow) to justify the initial cost as it will be used over a larger acreage than his own, and it may generate income for him from the associated rental fees. Custom operators will also be compiled who are interested in such conservation tillage or planting operations as custom chisel plowing, no -till planting, soil -saving ridge planting or ridge forming. If you,are interested in having your name added to the Conservation Equipment Availability File, please contact the OMAF office in Clinton.
