Clark, SD | I have taken quite a few pieces of land that have been in grass or CRP and put them back into production. Just this last year I not tilled beans into a piece that had been grass for 20 years, terrible idea. The first problem was that no matter what was sprayed grass would just keep coming back, the worst part was trying to combine the beans with the ground being that rough. If I was going to do that again I would take a moldboard plow and go across it, I've seen guys around our area go in with those 10 years ago when thousands of acres of CRP came out and they all had great results.
Also your idea of planing corn would be better than beans. With beans you need to run the header right on the ground to combine and that just make life difficult because I've never seen a field of CRP that is smooth. | |
