South Central MN | I'm in an area that is mostly full tillage but I've done most of my ground with very little tillage for years now, reason most won't switch is it takes time for the soil to get structure back so it actually drains and carries better. Year 3 can be a real struggle if it is a wet spring. Usually by year 5-7 things get straightened out and you can plant right through spots where in the full tillage years you would have made mud balls with the field cultivator.
Lots of planters around here aren't set up to no-till either so there is that. | |

Does corn or beans benifit more from deep tillage?
