CASI's Jeff Mitchell was a "three-peater" July 5th on Tom Willey's "Down on the farm" radio program on KFCF's 88.1 FM station on July 5, 2024. He shared information from the recently published article, No-tillage, surface residue retention, and cover crops improved San Joaquin Valley soil health in the long term, that was published in the May 2024 issue of California Agriculture. Willey was a co-author on the work and he talked with Mitchell about how the work came about, what its study goals were, how it was conducted, and what its findings were. Willey's program airs every first Friday of the month and has a loyal following that includes a great diversity of folks who greatly enjoy his 'on the front porch' conversations with his guests. A video of the radio interview is available at the You Tube link
