I am a no-tiller that has a baffling situation. I am in the area of the western belt that got little rain this year. No-till should shine in this situation and I was going to be proud of it. Well as it turns out I had 2 fields that got weedy before planting and decided since the tractor and driver were doing nothing , I would put them to work on the weeds. The one field got disked and field cultivated and the other just field cultivated. These fields will probably yield 100 bushels on average and the no-till fields got put in the silo with crop adjuster pegging them at 26 bushels. My neighbor has a field next to mine that he fall ripped and field finished this spring and that corn is going to push 150 bpa. How can this go against the conventional wisdom that staying out of the field will save moisture and thus improve yields?????????
