CROSS SLOT

The only known no-tillage technology and system in the world that arose from extensive, independent, published and peer-reviewed biological research. Cross Slot is the only true Ultra-low disturbance (ULD) no-tillage system available worldwide!... Cross Slot® IP Ltd consists of the key inventors/engineers of the Cross Slot® no-tillage technologies... The Cross Slot® suite of low-disturbance no-tillage (LDNT) technologies arose almost by accident. As a young scientist, Dr John Baker initiated a project at Massey University, New Zealand in 1967 that sought to identify and correct the reasons why early no-tillage sometimes failed around the world. His team of international scientists and 27 graduate students unraveled the science of how no-tillage machines work in untilled soils and why many fall short of promoting fail-safe seedling emergence or maximizing crop yield.
