Comment:
Flail mowed the LTER Main Site Biodiversity Study treatments B2 (spring fallow), and all the treatments that had corn in 2010: B8, B11, B12, B15, and B18, all replications. Treatment B5 did have corn in 2010 but was not flail mowed because it was previously seeded to rye on 10/21/2010 and the no-till drill knocked down the corn stalks sufficiently. Plots that were mowed were the following: B2 (102, 206, 316, 402), B8 (118, 214, 310, 408), B11 (110, 216, 309, 411), B12 (109, 202, 313, 412), B15 (112, 213, 301, 415), and B18 (108, 208, 311, 418). The plots were mowed to approximately 6-8” height across the entire field. Mowed with the John Deere 115 flail mower on the John Deere 7420a tractor.
