Are you a livestock producer looking for solutions for deads. We're prepping for a shallow composting demonstration in partnership with KDA Veterinarians and K-State Department of Agronomy soil scientists. This is an informal event starting at 9:15 AM MT Wednesday Oct 14 at the station headquarters 1 mile west of Tribune. Come watch, ask questions, etc. Will be posting updates over the next year as the process progresses. – at United States

Will apply desiccate on the canola soon to get the plants dry enough to go through the combine. These plants are super tough right now. Which I was grateful for because we had some extremely strong winds the past couple of days.

First crop I’m planting on this field. Heavy stripper stubble and I’m applying the highest downforce I’ve applied all season.
Yes great cover but poor soil structure. It also ponded more water than all the other fields I’ve seen.
There’s more to it than just residue folks.
