East Central Indiana | I'm in east central Indiana and had the exact same problems as you.
We went with 1 curvtine and 1 rubber wheel. It helped our crusting issue A LOT!!!!!!
I would do it over again without a question. We are all conventional tillage in corn.
We run ours on a kinze splitter that we notill beans with also. They work fantastic in notill also.
On our front pusher units we have 1 rubber and 1 lofquist welding closing wheel. They work well also but not as well as the curvtines.
I've been contemplating going to 2 curvtines on our 16 corn rows but not sure that I need them since our crusting issue hasn't happens since we've had the single curvtine.
Other than when we have had the 2 inch downpour that comes in 20 minutes and just a few days after planting.
I don't think any closing wheel can help that scenario in our soils | |
