Subject: Re: How much fert can a guy cut out with strip till?



Leesburg, Ohio
Have yet to hear anyone explain how or why a corn or soy or any plant will require less nutrients over time just because they are placed in a strip. I use strip-till, and I see nothing wrong with putting fertilizer in the row, except for the logistics of it. So we don't use row fertilizer for that reason. But if you put on less NPK than the crop uses, no matter where you put it, seems to me all you are doing is mining the soil of existing nutrients. If you want to do that for the short term, that's your decision to make, of course.
