I’m 70 and sure like seeing our food producers take care of the land. The first generation who came to America obviously didn’t have equipment to drill seeds and harvest vast fields so today the challenge is to quit tilling and killing soil life.
Thanks Earl for the question. Generally just a burndown was sprayed on the cereal rye cover crop. We aren't sure of the exact chemistry mix but mostly glyphosate, correct. Herbicide was used just prior to interseeding. Thanks again for the question and if we get any other details from Luke we will pass that along. Best! - Winona SWCD
Great question JD. Frost/winter, Grazing and roller crimping are three other options. They all work to varying degrees depending on the cover crop species. Generally a cover crop needs to mature to kill it with roller crimping.
Hello sir, i really like agriculture sector I have Bachelor degree in agribusiness ,anyway how can get internship in your farm I'm from Rwanda in Africa
That corn looks like absolute s#!t.. you would be better off raising a better corn crop and feeding your cattle corn than messing with some stupid cover crop....

What was herbicide managment here?just glyphosate?or residuals and post application?

@@winonacountyswcd9217 Thanks!
@@earlmanigault4020 Absolutely!
I’m curious if this gentleman had success with 60” rows and is he still doing it today. Great video !
What are you doing to get the corn seed spacing to 2-3 in spacing??
Is there an alternative to using herbicides and tilling to terminate cover corps?
Yes it's called a Roller Crimper, only works with certain cover crops. The timing has to be just right, and the cover has to be mature enough.

@@winonacountyswcd9217 Thanks for this, the key (if I want to avoid herbicides) seems to be to choose the cover crop wisely.
how much moisture do you have this year ?
how did you make the dried herbs in corn?
how you can care about land so much on one hand, and on the other you are spraying it with Roundup ? that thing goes beyond me.
We’ll get yourself a hoe and start chopping if you hate roundup.
