Mid Michigan | We had it flown on with an airplane into the standing soybeans a few years ago and it turned out great. You have to be relatively weed free and have a good stand of beans. We did it right when the leaves turned yellow. They soon fall off and cover the wheat seed and after a couple of rains you have a wheat field like magic. Was able to get a really good start on the wheat before winter. It wasn't muddy that year either so there were virtually no combine tracks in it. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I was at work when the guy did it. He put on 3 bushel to the acre and the spreading was very precise. I would also add it helps to have a combine that spreads chaff very evenly. Our gleaner does. Some of these IH's around here seem to dump a 3 foot swath of chaff and that wouldn't work very good. | |
