EROSION

CAN THE VALUE OF SURFACE RESIDUE BE MADE ANY CLEARER !!!!


When the soil surface is left exposed -- IT ERODES !!
This past winter an unusual event happened where snow melted quickly and water moved off our fields.  The soil was frozen rock hard, but in a short time period, the exposed surfaces warmed sufficiently to cause serious damage.  All the cultivated fields in the area showed similar damage, but on  a much larger scale.
