western iowa | We do all of ours strip tilling in the spring and have been running a pluribus 5 for the past 3 years using it to put 28 and dry on and really like how it mixes the dry in the zone and handles rocks great and the ability to run either 5mph to 10mph. We run it around 5 inches deep. We were using a shank type before switching and the first year we switched to pluribus we did half our corn acres with shank bar and other half with the pluribus. Some fields we ran both bars in the same field and where we ran the shank we had corn up rooting and leaning over from some late season winds and where we used the pluribus it was standing normal. We think the coulter type just did less disturbance to the soil structure for our soils in western iowa compared to pulling a shank helping improve the root anchoring strength | |
