00:00:00 Hey y'all, this is Chad Henderson with Extreme Ag and we're gonna talk to you just a second about strip tilling. 00:00:05 You know, we do been doing some strip tilling for, I don't know, six or seven years now, and we are no professional at it, 00:00:11 but we are getting better, that's for sure. A couple things we are figuring out is how much fertilizer to you use? 00:00:16 We're running by our soil test and we just keep bringing that rate down. Not saying that we don't need to be using dry fertilizer, 00:00:24 but what we are saying is there's a balance and that balance consists of a dry fertilizer blend, a liquid blend, and the micronutrients 00:00:32 that you need in that zone. And that's where we're at. We're putting it in that zone, and as you can see, we're following 00:00:40 behind double crop wheat and beans. So we plant wheat in the fall and then we come back and plant the double crop beans on it. 00:00:48 So we got a nice mat of material out here and then we just run the strip to in it. So we took our rope cleaners off the strip till so 00:00:55 that we can hold some of the material and some of the straw in that zone for the overwintering. Not to get too much taken away. 00:01:02 The ground's pretty flat right here in this field that we're running, but we're running about six inches deep, laying a good pretty bed out there. 00:01:10 And we've got about a hundred to 150 pounds of fertilizer in here. Little bit of dap, little bit of km mag 00:01:16 because we're low end mag here. Then we got a good load of zinc in it. So this is a good place to put the zinc in 00:01:22 because it's the cheapest kind of cheaper form of zinc and that we can put it right in this band. So it'll over winter in there. 00:01:29 But, um, anyway, y'all stay tuned. We'll keep strip tilling videos coming. Happy Harvest, happy holidays, 44 00:01:37.505 --> 00:01:38.805
