The
Colorado Conservation Tillage Association (CCTA) was founded in 1988 to serve the
needs of farmers searching for new ways to diversify their farms and better utilize
their resources.
CCTA is a non-profit serving all the States in the High Plains Region.
It is a collaboration of experienced farmers working with industry and
University and Agricultural Agency personnel whose goal is to spread research
and on-farm gained information. Through this organization, in cooperation with the
National Sunflower Association,
farmers have been able to utilize new technologies and techniques to enhance their
overall economic position.
