Trial Results- Planting corn green this spring into bio-strips of oats and radish CC only 7.5% lower yield than bio strips that I striptilled than planted corn. Multiple plots on 2 different fields. Expected larger difference with the strip tilled plots. Interesting results.

Just finished converting my strip tiller into a band spray for the fall. Time to test it out on some cover crop land going into corn next spring

Band strips sprayed last fall in Cover Crop looking good this spring, just waiting for weather to strip till bands or plant corn directly into strips

Johnson Sue Extract starter vs 5 gal/ac 6-24-6 results for 2024 ave over 30 plots. Right 6-24-6. 163 bu/ac. Left JS Ext 164 bu/ac. Really surprised on the JS Ext root growth and was $40/ac less cost
