The minimum amount of crop residue left on the soil surface after planting shall be 1 ,500 pounds per acre of corn or sorghum residue, or 500 pounds per acre of flat small grain residue or its equivalent. C. Soil loss by water and wind shall be reduced to the loss tolerance established for that soil. The Universal Soil Loss Equation and the Wind Erosion formula can be used to arrive at the amount of residue necessary to keep the soil loss within limits.

On systems where tillage operations are permitted: 1. Subsurface tillage equipment should be used to keep the residue on the soil surface. 2. On soils that tend to crust, or with some slope to them, a chisel type implement may need to be used after harvest to increase water infiltration and reduce soil loss due to runoff. 3. Chemicals may be used to aid in reducing or eliminating tillage operations. Use manufacturers labels or Colorado Weed Control Handbook for specific rate recommendations. The following options are recommended. a. Fall sweep (4 inches deep) plus Atrazine. Fall sweep immediately (within two weeks) after wheat harvest to kill existing vegetation. Atrazine applied immediately following fall sweep will kill volunteer wheat and weeds until the next summer. Limit summer tillage operations prior to planting. b. Apply a combination of non-selective contact or non-residual herbicides (such as Paraquat or Roundup) plus Atrazine to kill existing weeds and for long-term weed control. Limit summer tillage operations. B 1022 REC 01957566 02/29/84 13 : 34 $0. 00 10/020 F 0382 MARY ANN FEUERSTEIN CLERK & RECORDER WELD CO, CO TGN #182 2/82 Conservation Tillage System 329-3 c.

Limit summer tillage operations. E. For no-till systems: 1 . Conventional tillage operations will not be used to control volun- teer crop growth or annual forbs and grasses. On soils with a heavy clay or silty surface that tend to seal, a light crust breaking may be needed using sweeps or a chisel using straight shanks. a. Wheat-fallow (chemical only) - Use of chemicals to eliminate tillage operations. The following is required: ( 1) Contact herbicides, such as Paraquat or Roundup, plus atrazine or residual and tank mixes such as atrazine-Bladex and atrazine-Igran shall he applied immediately following harvest to kill existing weeds and give long-term weed control. (2) A short residual herbicide may be used for spring applica- tion if necessary to control weeds to substitute for tillage operations normally used. (3) A slot or no-till planter or grain drill shall be used that will disturb not more than 25% of the soil surface. b. Corn, sorghum, and small grains (chemical only) . Use of chemi- cals to eliminate tillage operations in irrigated cropland or annual cropping systems. The following is required: (1) A contact herbicide plus Bladex, Igran or other short residual (45-60 days) may be used for spring application if needed to control weeds to eliminate early spring and early summer tillage. (2) A slot or no-till planter or adequate grain drill shall be used that will disturb not more than 25% of the soil surface. (3) Atrazine may be used in a wheat-sorghum-fallow or a wheat- corn-fallow sequence. F. Farmers must be made aware of the hazards involved in using residual herbicides. ki B 1022 REC 01957566 02/29/84 13 : 34 $0 . 00 11/020 F 0383 MARY ANN FEUERSTEIN CLERK & RECORDER WELD CO, CO TCN 1/182 2/82 329-4-Conservation Tillage System 1 . Caution must be exercised in use of atrazine on soils with a pH of 7.5 or higher. 2. Caution should be taken when applying long residual herbicides annually so no overlap or carry-over effect of chemical occurs. 3 . A minimum of 20 gallons of water, preferably 30, will be needed to get adequate coverage of chemical. 4 . For more uniform application, Large volume sprayers with wide stable boom coverage are preferred over small units with narrow coverage. The wider swath should result in fewer overlaps or skips. Dust should be held to a minimum as it deactivates some herbicides. Nozzle spacing should not be greater than 40 inches for uniform distribution. G.

Strips of high residue producing crops will be' grown in alternate strips with erosion susceptible crops. Strips will be approximately perpendicular to the prevailing wind direction. B. Width and spacing of protective strips: 1 . Row Crop Plants — Minimum width of protective strips will be the equivalent width of 4 rows spaced 40 inches apart. Spacing between strips will not exceed 30 feet. 2. Drilled Plants — Minimum width of protective strips will be two rows (12" — 20" spacing) and the spacing between strips will not exceed 30 feet. C. The protective crop will be harvested with a combine or mowed leaving the stubble 12 to 18 inches tall. The protective residue will be left on the soil surface through the critical wind erosion season (Nov—May) or until the seedbed is prepared for the following crop which is expected to occur in early April. Spring seedbed preparation should result in a ridged surface for wind erosion protection. III. Perennial Tall Grass Barriers „ ,',r IJ CtlidA. Only tall growing species such as tall wheatgrass , switchgrass , big bluestem, sand bluestem, Basin wildrye and Indiangrass will be planted. Range site descriptions and Critical Area Planting specifications will be used to determine specie adaptation. B . Seedbed preparation will consist of only those operations necessary to assure a firm soil condition relatively free of weeds. Planting in residue from a previous crop is acceptable. C. Colorado Agronomy Note No. 61 will be used to determine amounts of seed to plant. D. Barriers shall consist of at least two rows of grass spaced .10-40 inches apart as a minimum. E. Optimum barrier spacing will be determined using the Guide for Wind Erosion Control and will be designed as close to this optimum as possible considering equipment widths. F. Weed control will be practiced as needed to control competition until grass is well established. G. Barriers will be periodically mowed or clipped to a minimum height of 8-10 inches to encourage regrowth and prevent decadent stands from developing.
