Subject: RE: Compaction Thoughts


Swaledale, IA
The only good thing a roller does is push the rocks down till next year. I am a firm believer it has led to numerous emergence issues in soybeans. It causes compaction and if you get a rain at the wrong time after can turn an otherwise good seedbed into a parking lot.

One on my biggest problems is eventually you have to pick the rocks anyway or eventually you can make field into a rock garden.

It is nice to combine a rolled field in the fall though.
