Deep plowing not profitable in long term tests
Experiments over many years compare plow depths from shallow three inches to deep 18 to 20 inches on a Scobey loam. Oats yield best with deep plowing at 39 bushels per acre but the gain over ordinary fallow does not cover extra cost. Barley favors ordinary plow depth, winter wheat shows no yield benefit from deep stirring. Skim plowing reduces yields and is only advised for weed control or severe cases with dry land and cloddy mulch issues.
