Curious to know what seed disk openers you would use in that situation

[@brendengood482]

Did Tony plant into living alfalfa? Then terminate?

Same here on my operation, fully regenerative green planting, its not hard, its axtially easier, he is correct on so many points, the rye root structure keeps the soil biology alive 365 days a year, it mellows our the top few inches of soil, your standard tru V furrow disks will cut into RYE either green or bron (pre terminated) Edit: you dont even need furrow openers on your planter in no till, planting into standijg cover crops
