Pondering

[oneoff]

Cotton you nailed it with your comments about summerfallow.

We all must remember that we have never made or lost it this early in the year. Yes, things look questionable at this point however there is just as much chance of things changing in our favor as against.

Our world continues to grow, we all need to eat, we consume all that we grow.

Ron - If you do summerfallow, think of the opportunity next year. You may save a bit on chem, however that SF field on my farm would be getting the same rates as a continuous cropped field. Our experience is that you always get more than 2 to 1 ratio of a good agronomic blend of fertilizer and chemical

Yes Saskfarmer99 I am not going to fallow to skimp on fert, more to straighten out my rotation without going to a CWB cereal. I have some compaction issues and weed issues that subsoiling and fallow should address (and let me do a better job in 2011).
