Over here in SE MN in the hills if you cultivate the soil the depth you cultivate is on its way to the gulf at the first rain. NO ONE except a few organos cultivate anymore. Allan I've never seen a cultivator that can get the weeds in the row. My neighbor had the brilliant idea to switch to organic a few years ago. He rotary hoes 2X then cultivates 2X. In the last four years with the rains we have had I think he has lost close to a foot of soil on the hills. Then there is the giant ragweed problem. This year his beans went 3 Bu under the 8 Ft tall weeds. Corn was not much better. He blames Bush for tying up his mexican weed pullers at the border, LOL. Cultivating may have its place on level land but for sure not in HEI land. With beans at $12+ and corn at $6 a few weeds missed by the cultivator will cost you big time in lost yield. Spraying always pencils out for me.
