[QUOTE="Simon C, post: 7204, member: 319"] And why do you?[/quote] To feed the worms and recycle nutrients in the straw. This is partly how we manage not using any P, K or lime for 15 years. I suppose it is a timing thing really, maybe now I could be content to wait two years for the nutrients to become available, but more mulch means slower soil drying which is what I was talking about before with the green covers. I think my attitude is only relevant in a heavy soil situation. If your soil can be drilled when moist, you can cope with more surface trash, Drilling here is always tricky at the best of times and often needs a harrow pass as well for slot closing, something you can't do with loads of residue about.
