Anybody try no-tilling corn on corn? If so how did it turn out? How did you manage it?
Where are you located? Most here who have tried no-till corn on corn eventually get burned really bad. One year its 10 bushels less than corn following beans and the next it's 50-80 bushels less. It just depends on the disease pressure. If you work the stalks, you only have the allelopathy to deal with in corn on corn (the disease pressure is much less) and the yields are much more predictable. I know in other parts of the country no-till works great.
I no-till everything except corn on corn because it's so unpredictable. |
