Residue Is King 

Thanks for your valuable insights

Having the triticale down would also be basically like a 'green manure'. Though it would make me a little sad, because any chance I get, I love to get triticale hay for my critters. Highest protein ever, and everything I fed it to absolutely loved it, hoovered it up and looked for more! :)

WHen and where did you plant the triticale ..thanks..Dennis

Mulch layer breakdown is the best slow release fertiliser you can get! 🌾

Thank you for explaining so well #SOILHEALTH #HealthyHerd

Next, show the temps of the soil -bare vs at the base of the plants. Follow that with the fact that the roots will allow you to drive over top to plant into it while the ground is muddy underneath. Add to that some strip grazing with the cattle so you can see where they have been and you will get some good manure distribution that will feed your next crop.
