swohio | Have no pictures but have done covers for a long time now. Cereal rye is my go to just because it's very easy to do and I'm rarely able to get crops planted early enough to get other covers in early enough in the fall. Have planted corn into headed out cereal many times, not because I want to but rain rules. This year most of the corn planted into headed out rye. Non-GMO also. Seen plenty of areas on yield monitor that corn goes 250-275, no where close to that in avg., have a lot of rough ground in with good ground. All cereal rye is spread with a fert. spreader with single spinner. 42lbs/ac, that's as low as it goes. Just spread and do nothing else. Try to spread following combine, that's when its fluffy. Beans at times I wonder if planting green does hurt yield, I can't say because I haven't done any tests. Have only one time rye should have been killed ahead of time with corn, but got like 9" of rain in July and it took off and did 190bu, I was stunned. I have HEL ground and trying to get zero erosion. Maybe I'm lucky, but big cereal rye ahead of corn for me is no problem, I do roll it down after planting, plus I dribble on N side dress, I'm not doing it the way most do! | |
