You bought special combine wheels, a 60’ mounted planter, and a stripper head.
I’ve read about an Indiana farmer that has experimented quite a bit with intercropping. What I usually get from reading about his trials is that it’s a lot easier to do these trials when you or your family are already wealthy and your failures don’t risk your future.
and a 2 track tractor and 60' drill!!!
No wealth here, Payments suck and it better not be a failure!
Wheat/Double Crop or Wheat/Relay Crop have been most productive acres lots of years.
Most of our ground needs wheat in the rotation. I like wheat for a cover crop over rye. Also add in the options to graze, chop or wet bale for the cattle and it brings a lot to the table.
Just don't like early July double crop beans. Too risky. Thus the desire, and investment, to Relay crop. |
