Subject: Fall strip till on 30 inch soybean stubble, where you like to place the strips?


near Mtl, QC		New to fall strip till, I begun striptilling this spring and really like the results so far.

So now I'm just finished harvesting a soybean field that was planted 30 inch in the center of old corn row.

So my question is: where you like to do your strip in such a situation? In the same place where the soybean was (so same strip as this spring) or on the old corn rows and why?

TIA

NC Iowa

I never try to follow the old soybean row, with machines with a front coulter they will usually stay on one side of the old row and then jump to the other side instead of running right down the middle.

I also never follow the old corn row(Edit- root ball from a year ago, stripping into soybean stubble), I've done some in the last years, and I finally figured out I can actually see it in planting performance with the old root ball contained in the strip.

I would go in between the two old rows.

One spring several years ago, I went to work up a food plot that had been soybeans inn30” rows previous year. It was a little later in the spring before I got over there and there was a carpet of grass established. I was surprised how well I could make out the previous years row from stripes of much greener, taller grass on top of the old row. With this in mind, I’d suggest trying stay as close to old row as possible.

Ecsd		We usually just go over 7.5”. We tried 15” but the berm would get the 2 yrs previous old cornstalks in it. It is much cleaner right beside the bean row and then I don’t band fert the same place every other year. Edit to add. We are doing the same when planting beans. 7.5” beside the old corn row

Central Iowa		We do beans followed by 2 years of corn. The beans go as close to the fence as is reasonable, the first year corn goes right on top of that, then the second year corn goes 15in inside, and repeat. It keeps the weeds held back and maximizes total acres over the 3 year rotation.

I tried doing 10in offsets every year, but the guidance line situation became unmanageable. Our current system makes it very easy to know right where the strips belong, and the sprayer, side dress, etc.

As for bean stubble in the strip, I've never been able to measure a yield hit. Not saying it doesn't exist, just that I can't see it.

Donnellson, IA. Makes saying here easier.		I go exactly back down the bean stubble strip. Then over 5” when doing corn on corn. I hear so many say as to not build a hot zone in the soil….I’m all 30” corn and soybean so that is my exact intention.

western iowa		I'm 30" corn and beans rotated. I make corn strips on top of the old bean row and I make soybean strips in between the corn rows. So I wind up with a band every 15". I fall strip everything. Going between the old corn rows is the only way I can get through the residue.
