The Cultivation of Corn Crops
There is no single cultivation method for all soils or seasons and each year presents problems for corn growers. General principles favor shallow cultivation on average uplands, especially late in the season, with deeper passes only where soils are wet, foul, compact, or prone to running together. A sequence of one to two roughings followed by a three or more narrow shovel cultivator to progressively shallower passes yields best returns, barring wet weather.
