Planting corn into 8 acres of rye that has had 45 pairs on it since April. It is gonna need worked, there is virtually no rye left. It has been wet here and I know there's compaction. Would you A, run a soil finisher deep over it once, spread dry fert, then hit again then plant, B chisel plow it, disk it, spread dry, soil finisher then plant, or C run a inline ripper, soil finish, spread dry, soil finish again, then plant. And no, notill isn't gonna work, so please don't say just notill it. I think I want to just go with option A, but a couple people have said the compaction is gonna be terrible, so I'm se and guessing myself. Corn is going to be chopped for silage.


Spread fertilizer first
