NEILFarmer - 6/27/2012 21:27 About the sidewall compaction above. I found the strip till to have no sidewall compaction or very little. Basically when i was digging i couldn't find where disc went. Conventional broke apart in halves easily. Any idea? This was all normal deere rubber wheels.
Same soil texture and field history? Same down-pressure? Planted under identical moisture conditions, or was the strip-till slightly drier? (perhaps imperceptibly to us, but the roots know)
