Cropping System Two (CS2)
Min. Till Corn-Soybeans
Minimum-till Corn – Soybeans: This system represents a corn – soybean rotation using minimum tillage. Fertility is derived from applied synthetic N, P, and K, and weed control is achieved via herbicides. Top yielding corn hybrids and soybean varieties with advanced genetic traits are planted. Soybeans are no-till drilled into corn stover, and corn is strip-till planted in soybean stubble.
