What's the thinking behind the disturbance when establishing the cover crop?

What was it yielding? Why the stane graip on the chaser bin tractor?

James.....last year that block was drilled in less than ideal conditions, also bales were removed/muck spread in the wet which caused a few problems. The ground was in good trim the other week and I made the decision to drill the CC to sort of "prime" things for zero till in the spring.

That block of Escadre averaged 3 tonnes/acre......the 75 was rolling CC that morning hence the graip but I noticed he did lift a few stones id ripped up on the passing.
