For my soybeans I conducted a population trial and saw no yield difference between a 100k population and a 140k population. However my other soybean field showed the best yield where I planted green into standing rye then roller crimped the rye with soybeans at a V1-V2 growth stage. For my corn field I did a no till and conventional till comparison and saw similar yield between the two. This has prompted me to convert my acres to no till and I have also implemented cover crops which I just finished planting last year. This opportunity was a great way to take what I&#8217;ve learned in the classroom and apply it to a real life situation and increase the ROI on my acres and continue the family farm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year was the first year I was able to cash rent some ground and make the agronomy decisions for that land.
