Do you apply nitrogen or any type of biological products to corn stalks after harvest to help them break down by planting time? Any opinions as to what works best?

Yes, I applied 100 lbs of AMS to help break mine down.  I have used 28 and high fructose corn syrup with good results.  25 lbs N seems to do the job for me.
