Strip-till is a conservation system that uses a minimum tillage. It combines the soil drying and warming benefits of conventional tillage with the soil-protecting advantages of no-till by disturbing only the portion of the soil that is to contain the seed row.[1] This type of tillage is performed with special equipment[2] and can require the farmer to make multiple trips,[1] depending on the strip-till implement used, and field conditions. Each row that has been strip-tilled is usually about eight to ten inches wide.[1]
