Recropping urged in southern Montana fields due to deep moisture
Deep soil moisture to at least 30 inches across southern Montana supports recropping in fallow areas to avoid saline seep issues. Experts from Montana State University note better chances for recropping in the Triangle Area, Judith Basin, Broadview, Hardin, and southeastern Montana, while northern regions like Shelby Cut Bank remain marginal. Krall advises probe checks on stubble fields, nitrogen tests, and reduced tillage. six inches of soil moisture can be saved by not disturbing stubble, and alternate rows of recropping may be used.
