Subject: RE: Dry tolerant cover crop?



King City, Mo
Honestly I would see what weeds come.

If grass and pigweeds come hit it with a hard rate of 2,4-D. That's gonna be cheaper then pulling the drill outta the shed and doesn't require seed.

This allows the grasses to grow. Capture sunlight and keep soil in place.

I did this last year on prevent plant ground and it really knocked the twh pressure back this year where I did that. It did increase my grass pressure but......gly kills grass and its choking out the twh when it emerges....

Something to atleast think about. I would encourage working the ground this fall as all the residue the next spring sucked to notill into and the beans aren't as good there as where I disk or chiseled last fall.
