NW Ohio | Here I 've got notill and conventional till beans after corn. In every case the tilled ground looks better. You would think the notill ground would have held moisture better, and it probably did, But the trick here was getting the stuff up as quick as possible. The worked ground came up much faster and more even than the notill. I have stalk field that I ripped the end rows on and notilled the rest. The end rows are 6" taller, I have a better stand, and they look healthier. I'm not against notill I mean if it works it works but this year our worked ground looks better. No rain forcasted for the next week and 100 tomorrow so I'm thinking it isn't going to matter in the end. Local EMA says its been the driest year on record for us with more dry to come. | |
