Innovative: Strip Till Joint Venture
Willard initiated a joint venture to test a new type of strip till technology (The Soil Warrior) with interested customers in 3 key geographies: Lower shore, York County PA/Northern MD and Montgomery County, MD area. This machine uses a large colter technology vs a knife applicator to till in a strip and inject complete liquid fertilizer in a band at the bottom of the trench.
