E60: 20 Inch Rows with Scott Wallis
Show Notes

Indiana and Illinois farmer Scott Wallis made the switch to 20 inch rows all the way back in 2001, and since then has made some significant transitions in his operation. Today, he joins us to talk about what went into the decision, how he’s managed the risks, and how shifting agronomic decisions have affected everything from labor demands to fertility and pest protection on his farm. We’ll dig into seeding rates, side dressing, and the unexpected benefits of canopy cover.
