You will probably want to invest in a few key pieces of equipment to optimize your organic operation. It depends on your crop rotation, location, and number of organic acres, but generally you want to own or have access to a rotary hoe and a cultivator. And some farmers prefer to also add a tine weeder and/or flamer for weed management. The overall incremental investment in new equipment is frequently very manageable.
You will be able to use equipment in both your organic and conventional fields as long as the appropriate clean-out procedures are followed and documented. As such, you will be able to use your existing tractors, planters, combines, grain carts, etc. on your organic acres.
It is critical to find a reputable dealer in your area or online resellers.
