Sunburst Montana
Around here, its wheat/chemfallow/wheat/chemfallow for most people.  For the guys north of me that can continous crop they will throw in canola on a barley/barley/barley rotation.  Some guys are doing a 1/3 chemfallow, 2/3s crop mostly wheat.  We do many rotations but most of our farm falls into the wheat/chemfallow rotation but we do throw in different kinds of wheat like spring, winter, durum, or barley.  We have a little mustard right now to give the sawflys something else to chew on. We also put 200 acres of alfalfa in every 5 years and take out 200 acres of alfalfa every 5 years.  Thats to stay ahead of the alkine seeps.  Sometimes we will throw a legume in place of chemfallow for a little green manure.  My location is north central Montana
