This sounds counter but the best results I've ever found was using a flatbottom mold board plow in June behind wheat...only did 40 acres because the ground was too hard and dry.. but the following year the beans yielded as good as I ever had except for irrigated beans.. we normally double cropped beans behind wheat but decided on it being so dry and hard not to plant beans on that ground that year... they would not germinate unless we got a rain..at that time in Arkansas you didn't plant beans in June or July unless you had moisture and could get them up without a rain..
Rubber cleated farm tires work like a sheep'sfoot construction compactor it compresses the soil and closes voids in the soil.. wheel slippage compounds the problem I've never been around it but. It seems that inline subsoilers and this Verticle tillage may be the answer as long as the moisture is not too great in the soil. We all know that most hardpans occur from plow shares, sweeps, etc smearing the soil below.. and plowing soil that is wet.
Hi, Brian! Darren answered your question on Ag PhD Radio yesterday: soundcloud.com/agphd/03-20-17-manganese-and-magnesium#t=58:07. Also, you can get some great suggestion on where it's best to find them online by calling our main office at 800-274-3389 and speaking with Mike Bemboom.
