Hey Duffster, do you have to worry about wind erosion? Around here if a farmer tills a field in the fall you can see soil blown all over the snow in the next fields all spring.
No, not really.
If we have an extremely open winter you may see a little soil in the snow drifts along the road but even then it is only on the extreme ridges.
Around here the best crops are grown on fall chisel plowed fields.
