Less Tillage May Pay For Fayette County
Fayette County farmers may reduce field trips to 7 to 13 across corn land, lowering costs and soil compaction. Iowa State College’s Frank Schaller notes top yields from as few as seven trips, with minimal seedbed prep after plowing. Fewer passes focus on weed control and gentle soil fitment for good germination.

Soil man outlines corn seedbed and weed control plans
Schaller explains that seedbed preparation varies with soil and season. He describes loose porous soil, wheel track planting, and minimal tillage. He notes rotary hoe timing, two hoeing passes plus one cultivation, and a 2 4 D post plant for broadleaf weeds to control costs while maintaining soil health.
