Spreading Compost on Row Crop Fields in the Winter #compost
Spreading compost on row crop fields is a powerful way to improve soil health and promote sustainable farming practices. When applied in the winter, after harvest, compost offers several key benefits for farmers and the environment.
Why Winter Composting Works:
Nutrient Absorption: Applying compost in the winter gives soil time to absorb nutrients before the next growing season, ensuring crops have access to a steady supply of essential nutrients when they’re planted.
Improved Soil Structure: Winter composting helps prevent soil erosion, reduces compaction, and enhances soil structure, making it easier for plants to grow healthy roots come spring.
Conservation & Erosion Control: Spreading compost reduces the risk of wind and water erosion, protecting valuable topsoil and supporting conservation agriculture practices.
Carbon Sequestration: Compost helps capture carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the soil, contributing to renewable farming practices and helping mitigate climate change.
A Sustainable Practice for Long-Term Soil Health
Winter composting is an essential component of conservation agriculture. By returning organic matter to the soil, farmers can reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers and create healthier, more resilient soils for the future. It’s a simple yet effective way to boost soil fertility, improve water retention, and ensure sustainable crop production. Skunk River Compost located in Southeast Iowa creates high quality compost for row crop and garden soil amendment.

We still have a working Fordson Major at the family farm.
Old stuff is all that will work after the EMP wipes out everything run by electronics. Farmers don't sell all your old stuff!
Who said it was just a kids movie??
That brings back memories from my childhood when I used to do
Sounded pretty realistic to me.❤🎉
old is bold, old is gold no mechanics needed they come onboard
She’s works hard like country girl
Just beautiful ❤.. old is gold ❤🧐🤔, just keeps on going.. no computers to hold up product and less break downs.. at fractions of the cost. Bigger isn't always better 😵💫🧐🤔
That equipment has been paid off for the last two and a half decades
Then how to use in healthy sodas ? Like how much of the bug and then do we let the new soda ferments again ? And how long ?
Thank you to all of you farmers for taking care of us❤❤❤😅
It looks like fun to get in her coveralls with this girl.
Are they making hay? My god that’s one dirty field
Less brake downs
The old stuff always overcomes without a freakin laptop! Retro all the farm and construction equipment so we can get ship done! Nice vid.
That song,I can't place it
It's neat watching the old iron work and work together!!! 😊
I appreciate your "old stuff"! Instead of music, l would like to HEAR the "old stuff"!
My grandfather always said "Don't replace something that still works "...
By gosh I love me some country girls
Now that is farming!
Old stuff my Arse. Thats drop dead gorgeous for a lifetime.
I want a farm with all antique equipment.
Green is good

I thought she sounded very authentic! Not bad lol .
Far better than the new stuff !! Bring it
Kansas, the o ly place where wheat blowing in the wind looks like waves in the ocean😊
The old stuff is neighbor helping neighbor.
Put it all back to work, old stuff was built to last and does the job just fine. And never a computer or sensor problem in a 100 years of use. Junk the new stuff.
If it still works, it aint too old😊
Great video! I’d love to live in a quite place like this. Greetings from Belgium, and Happy Holidays! Keep making more of these amazing videos!
