100 to 250 plus in no till….. don’t get caught up in the numbers get out and check you furrow to see if it’s still intact and not over compacted and adjust accordingly… you should be staying between 98-100% average ground contact.
My soil this year was really dry before all this rain, in conventionally tilled soil I was running 170-190 just to maintain a furrow, if it had more moisture I’d be running much less.


This here is my take too. You still have get out and check. The monitors definitely give you an idea what is going on but laying eyes on things is still a must. Studies show having to little hurts more then to much.
