Aberdeen MS | in the last 5 yrs of strip tilling, leaving the stalks "up" and everything attached to them has produced the hardest results to deal with in the spring.
And when the residue blows back over covering the strips....no it is not gone in the spring. With only 2-3 weeks in the fall and 2 - 3 weeks in the spring that the ground is not frozen, residue does not dissappear quite that rapidly. That is if one is planting within the optimum planting window for corn production. Soybeans are a bit more forgiving, but the residue still needs different management "here" than other places.
See Gerald J's post below for something that has to be dealt with "here". Other areas it does not apply, but it does here. | |
