Gettysburg, PA
Burn down this fall to let sod break down some and no-till beans in the spring.  That old sod is tough to get through and needs some time to break down first.  Plus it gets away from a grass on grass rotation (sod to wheat) by disrupting with the broadleaf SB.  A good article in last months No-Till Farmer about an Iowa farmer who successfully converts CRP ground.  He says his best success is fall burndown of sod and no-till SB in spring.
