Well, the manure was pretty light compared to previous owner, he spread the whole barnfull on 1/4 of an 80 every 4 years rotating 1/4's. The trash wheels on renters planter cleaned a good 6" in the row. I really wish that was my corn rather than his. Also I noticed there are alot of area where the weeds were so thick that the corn in them weeds is real sickly looking and in some places just died off. It has since been hit with round up and I am starting to see bare spots in the feild. I am concerned about the hill along the pond, no corn, either geese ate it all or was too dry to germinate. I am tempted to see if he will let me drag some rye seed in or something. I hate to see what will happen if we get some of that rain alot of you are getting. I dug down a foot in a few places and that soil is like concrete down there. I am really contemplating ( for next spring) spread the manures, plow it in 6-8", seed it with a cover crop right away for erosion control, then plant the beans and corn right into the rye, and then spray down the rye before it hurts the corn, should help with soil compaction and weed control , as well as moisture retention, does any one agree. I'll be small time, but I want to make some money and be good to the soil.
