[QUOTE="Bogweevil, post: 6920469, member: 48190"] You are all wrong, it is down to the juices. Soil has juice - ploughing sweetens the juices, no- till leaves them sour. Nitrogen fertiliser is like sugar it sweetens the soil juices, so you should use plenty of nitrogen if you no-till. That is why organic no till is difficult, they have no nitrogen to sweeten the soil. Pasture does not get sour as the grass sucks up the sour juices which is why you can make silage, otherwise you would have to add heroic amounts of formic acid to get good silage. Exposing hay to sun lets the sour juices evaporate. Pigs like the sweet soil juices which is why they rootle so much. Ringing pigs leads to sour soil juices. When I told BASIS this they rescinded my FACTS qualification, the dolts. [/QUOTE]
