Are you in continuous corn, or a corn/soybean rotation? If you are in a corn/soybean rotation Why not try notilling soybeans into the standing corn stalks on a few acres next spring. I can find no yield advantage for soybeans following corn by doing anything to the corn stalks. We simply notill into the standing stalks at a ninety degree angle. I actually want the stalks left as tall as possible resulting in less residue on the ground for the spring sunlight to penetrate and the drill to have to cut through.
I realize this is not related to the answers you were looking for so take it for what it cost.
Never again. Did that to all my bean ground this spring. Wasnt able to get into my last field until July 3!
