MCL, We no-till approximately 2,200 acres of soys every year. Like most farmers who No-till soys here in Mid Michigan we drill them (7" spacing). There are still a lot of farmers who till and plant in rows ranging from 15" to 30", but they also cultivate. No-till does better here being drilled because of weed control. driving over the plants do not seem to hurt them, in fact the shock often causes better growth. You don"t say whether your row planter is no-till or not. Ive seen guys try to no-till with a conventional row planter and it just doesnt work.
