I was wondering that now with all the ECB and RW technology available in corn seed whether it still pays to chop corn stubble in the fall before going in with beans the next sprin.

Alfalfa is one of the easiest crops to no-till for us. We havn't worked ground for it in over 20 years here in sewi. Reseeding alfalfa into an old stand has never ever worked for us. We always plant another crop in between because it takes a year to alleve the alleopathic effect of the old alfalfa. We plant at 1 inch depth where most all of the residue has been removed. It is not too deep because the ground will not crust with no-till. We use 15 lbs of seed with a JD no-till drill set in the second notch and have never had a failure. good luck

Hi Rodney, On our farm we have been no-tilling pastures and hay ground for three years now. It can be done sucessfully where you live because we farm similar ground. The easiest way is to rotate to corn for one year. We have also no-tilled BMR sudangrass to help get rid of sod. Last year we sprayed a pasture with roundup. Did it again on month later. then we sprayed one quart roundup this spring thenspread on 5000 gallons manur per acre than no tilled one week later on May 10 . Excellant stand. Go on you -tube and search for" Angelrose Dairy"... They are my videos. ..Good day . John Kemmeren
