[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 9150924, member: 71668"] This shows the absolute importance of soil types & moisture conservation / ground cover / zero till in our environment & a “dryland” ( rain grown - no irrigation ) system. I am farming on a floodplain with deep, heavy, black clay soils that have very high water holding capacity ( ie can store a lot of water ). These pics are the same crop / field, but on the edge of the floodplain where it runs into lighter & shallower soil. That is the only difference. Soil type & water holding capacity. Also, lack of groundcover from previous crop ( for the same reasons ) [ATTACH type="full" alt="14B53C59-75D2-4B79-89DD-9FCCB548AD81.jpeg"]1162589[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="3A96E37F-615E-4F0E-8A57-27CA4C9259AD.jpeg"]1162590[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
