RE: Rotating Crops
Good advice from Wingbone -
I go CORN, CORN, and maybeCORN again.
Then SOYBEANS, SOYBEANS
Then CLOVER for 3-5 years
The Soybeans help to break down the residual con stalks in the soil - and the Roundup over the Beans helps reduce the Weed Seed Reserve (especially grasses) - for when we plant clover again.
Thats my perfect rotation. Sometimes we mix in a Rye, Brassica or Winter Wheat planting - We'll do a often do aFALL planting and and overseed with the nextPROPOSED clover planting. Sometimes we need toOverseed or frost seed again with clover.
