Iola farmer Gordon Conger

30 Years Ago

July 1989

Ridge till farming was demonstrated on the Gordon Conger farm Thursday morning. See-Kan SC&D was one of the sponsors of the demonstration and several farm equipment manufacturers also participated. Ridge till farming reduces production costs through less labor and equipment usage and aids in soil conservation by making the character of the land more regimented, said Jim Gaskell, See-Kan SC&D coordinator.
