Min-till maize??
Heavy ground is ploughing up badly. Looks alot of work getting into a seedbed. I reckon I could get a better seedbed with cultivator/disc then power harrowing twice. Min-till maize a good idea. Usually would have Subsoiler but I image will only smear it- Zippy768

What water volume do you use for Glysophosate?
