1 . Subsurface tillage equipment such as sweeps, blades and

is beneficial in managing the residue.

B. Planning Considerations
C 1 . The above amounts of residue will be left on the soil surface
through May or until spring seedbed preparation which usually
occurs in early April. Spring seedbed preparation should result
.t in a ridged surface for wind erosion protection.

2. When inadequate residue is q produced the soil surface will be
v ridged by chiseling or listing. Soils coarser than sandy loam
— usually require listing to provide satisfactory surface
roughness.
3. Grazing will be restricted on machine harvested crops when
marginal amounts of residue are produced.

residue as long as feasible after harvest. The cropping system -
and method of irrigation are to be considered. If fall plowing
destroys the residue, the field will be left rough and cloddy <
