Tillage Radish research has been ongoing since 2001 at the University of Maryland under the direction of Dr. Ray Weil, professor of Environmental Science & Technology. Several University of Maryland grad students have assisted greatly in this study, including: Stacy Williams, Lisa Stocking and Yvonne Lawley. Other universities have recently begun research about the benefits of Tillage Radishes.
Note: Tillage radishes are a unique selection derived from the forage radishes used in Dr. Weil’s research.
