Hello, you lurker you. Couldn't resist to come see what you were missing, could you? LOL
Just teasing of course.
That "notill won't work everywhere" still gets me, won't work on poorly drained soil etc etc, got lots of proof the other way but we can only help those who choose to be helped.
I like Tom's synopsis, pretty much me.

I got the field, come down here and show us how!
We've got over a 100,000 acres row crops in both Ft Bend and Wharton counties and a few million along the coast down to the valley. I'd bet that less than 1% are no till. You going to tell me all these farmers are too dumb, stupid, or whatever to look into no till and make it work if it had benefits? Like I said in my previous post I'd like no till to work here, I'm way to lazy to do all this tillage we do here. I'm way past the point in my life where driving a tractor was fun, that ended when I was a teenager and found out about girls! LOL
