People keep saying stuff like that. What about the folks that have no tilled for 3 decades have small grains in the rotation and have corn stalks piling up year after year?
My suggestion.....and remember I’m no ex-spurt.... but have seen things happen on my farm
1- a Legume on an InnerSeed mix in Corn does wonders for residue decomp,you need to think about the whole carbon:Nitrogen ratios..... if you have carbon building up(residue)
2-find some livestock (or just manure) would be a way to ramp things up.... worms are good,but the rest of the biology comes in many different forms
3- yes Nebraska is a lot drier then PA....or even Iowa... but often times it’s not how much you get,it’s how much you can hold
