NW Washington | Chop the corn stalks however you want to before seeding with a hoe-type air seeder. Some air seeders, like Horsch, can be fitted with coulters in front of each shank, which might help, but I think you will still have to chop the stalks. I have heard that the residue needs to be shorter than the row spacing for a hoe drill to work.
Here is an old NAT thread on this subject with info about how some have actually used a shank drill in corn residue. https://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=394982&Display... | |
