1989-04-14 Soil Preparation {{PL: Used a disk and cultipacker to workup the plots in the Rotation Study which will be planted to Oats (should have been wheat last fall) (Rotation/Crop #'s 1A & 2A). After tilling, Treatments 1A & 2A were seeded to Oats with the Tye drill (mounted). Variety was ”Ogles” at a rate of 2 bushels/acre. The Alfalfa plots (3A) need more tillage and the seed isn't in yet.}}

1989-05-18 Soil Preparation {{PL: Lana Barclay and crew performed various operations on her Hairy Vetch Mgt study in the Ancillary Site today. These operations included flail mowing, moldboard plowing, disking and cultipacking. Check with Dana if you need details on these operations.}}
1993-04-27 Soil Preparation {{PL: <Action> Rotation Study; Treatments 3a were plowed in all four reps. Ground was then tilled with a disk and culti-packer to firm it up. Oats were then seeded at 65 lbs/a along with 18 lbs/a Alfalfa. The Tye drill was used.}}
1993-05-18 Harvest {{PL: <Action>Vetch management; Mowed corn stalks in all ridge and no-till treatments with bush hog mower. Conventional till treatments were disked and then field cultivated with cultipacker attached also. Planted all treatments with GL 450 at 26,000 plants/a. Dyphonate was added to aid in rootworm control. }}
1988-10-14 Soil Preparation {{PL: Finished the first disking of rep 6, trts 2,3,4, and 7. This was begun yesterday. A soon as this was complete we hooked the cultipacker to the disk and hit al four plots again with the disk + cultipacker. }}
1988-05-24 Soil Preparation {{PL: After dragging and cultipacking the appropriate plots in the Rotation Study, Jim B. and Andrew Seitz planted Oats at 2 bushels/acre and Medium Red Clover at 12 pounds/acre using the Tye ‘Series 5’ No-till grain drill.}}
1988-10-13 Soil Preparation {{PL: Bronson's Crew: Disked Tiedje's 2,4-D study using the 10 foot International disk just procured from the Farm Learning Center. We then disked the entire study a second time with the cultipacker hooked to the disk. Tiedje’s technician (Peter B.) then flagged out his plots and applied his spray treatments.Bronson’s crew also began disking certain treatments of Rep 6 in the main Site. The treatments that will be disked are as follows: Trt #2 (no-till/high input), Trt #3-4 (low and zero input); Trt#7 (Native successional). The reasons for disking now are to leave these plots as much like the other 5 reps as possible considering that rep 6 was in alfalfa this summer. This is especially true for Trt 7 which will not be touched from now on and for Trt 2 which will be no-till corn next summer and will probably not be touched again before that. Trts 3-4 are to be planted to wheat this fall and the disking is in preparation for that operation. }}
