The problem is if we start using covers, starter fert, a bit of lime, trace elements etc etc every year to achieve the yield we got when ploughing and PH drilling the cost saving of DD will be more than wiped out.IF DD is better for the soil and soil life and therefore crops we should be able to use less of these things not more(at least after a couple of years)
If your getting good yields and improving yields then it shouldn't matter too much.
