ecmn | In corn I'd be coming back in at V2 V3 with the cover crop. So even if the effect of the Rye War off would still have the cover crop to hold weeds back. If it works for organic guys why can't it work for us?
Other benefits? Benefits of long-term soil Health practices are greatly reduced fertility input costs, more timely planting and harvest, less dependence upon the weather, can handle the varying weather conditions better, pretty much eliminate chemical cost, less erosion , actually building Rich fertile topsoil, a lot less weed pressure , don't have money tied up in tillage equipment, don't have to fight mud in the spring don't have to fight mud in the fall for the most part there's always extremes. I'm a couple fields that I've done so oil Health practices we get a 2-3 inch rain event and in a day or two I'm out there if I have to be out there. I can pretty much guarantee nobody else in the neighborhood can say that. Oh they'll say stupid things like I have different soil. Weight of the soil has no bearing upon success of soil Health, it works on all ground.
Look at the video I posted last week about Hauling manure this spring on a soil health field versus a conventional field. I was Hauling manure on a soil health field before anybody else could even do tillage. How much is it worth to a guy to be able to plant more consistently from year to year? On a year like this how much is it worth to be able to just plant.
