Sunflowers as a substitute for summerfallow in crops
H Pawlowski of the CDA research station notes planting sunflowers in eight to sixteen foot rows can replace summerfallow, with potential higher returns under drought and wind erosion control. Wide-row pacing needs no special cultivator, and nitrogen at planting aids both sunflowers and next crop. Volunteer grain is a major weed, mitigated by a lister planter. Success depends on a long growing season and new, earlier maturing varieties.
