@EdJHanson About a month after corn planting I plant a four way mix of oats flax alfalfa and rye and also side dress 28% in the same operation. My yield goal for soybeans is 50+ bu/per/ac.

Pair row 30” beans going into heavy pair row 60” corn stocks with over wintering covers. Fun and good for the soil!

@PowerPhilF That must be a Jackhammer Radish!

These aerial photographs are an excellent example of strip grazing on cover crops.

Strip grazing is when livestock are given access to one small section of a field at a time, letting them graze evenly while the rest of the cover crop rests and recovers.

While it requires a bit of preparation and labor, strip grazing brings a multitude of benefits to the soil, such as...

🌾 High impact and longer rest periods - Livestock create a beneficial disturbance followed by extended rest, allowing soils and plants time to recover and strengthen.

🌾 Improved nutrient cycling - Manure and urine are distributed more evenly across the field, returning nutrients directly to the soil where they’re most needed.

🌾 Soil Armor - The higher herd density encourages more trampling, pressing crop residue into the surface to form a protective layer over the soil.

Thanks to Juan Urbisaglia for these amazing photos!

Thanks to a great group of ag policy makers representing many national wildlife interests we had a fun afternoon of #soilhealth school on the Breker farm. Putting the shovel in the ground never gets old.#cdplodge #pairrow60”corn.

@PowerPhilF Having your ripper be edible is a bonus! 🤩

Down in the flats harvesting a beautiful #pairrow60” corn crop while a wedding is going on at #cdplodge on the hill. The covers are as good as I’ve seen them, working on getting some four legged creatures out here.

#pairrow60” corn harvest has begun.
