Nitrogen (N) management plans are about as variable as the timing and application options available to today’s no-till farmers.

After 5 years, we’ve learned a lot about growing corn on corn. Now we’re evaluating new technology that will take our strip-till operation to the “next level,” as I reported in Indianapolis during the 2009 event.
