Effective residue management is crucial for soil health and crop performance, balancing soil conservation benefits with potential drawbacks like impeded soil warmup and uneven germination. Proper residue flow and equipment selection during seeding ensure optimal seed-to-soil contact and maximize growth potential throughout the growing season.
A successful crop requires uptake of the required amount of nutrients, most of which are applied as fertilizer. It is common for growers to apply nutrients as a blend of several fertilizers at one time for practicality and time management. Regardless of nutrient requirements and application practices, quick and early crop establishment is contingent on timely access to nutrients by seedlings.
As growers prepare for the planting season, several variables are at the forefront in terms of operating decisions. Considerations such as seed and fertilizer rate are typically decided well before seeding but several are decided upon at the time of seeding and are dependent on the conditions that the implement will be seeding into. One of the most important decisions in terms of plant stand consistency and survivability is seeding depth.
