Sixty-inch spacing for corn is sure not for everyone, but the math and soil conservation rewards can work for farmers who have limited rotations and can benefit from extended grazing for livestock on well-established cover crops.

That's Sunderland, Ontario, farmer Ed Hanson's takeaway from the first year of growing corn in 60-inch rows on his farm. Hanson, who also works for Cangrow Crop Solutions, teamed up with farmers in Ontario, Quebec, and Nova Scotia this summer to facilitate on-farm trials testing the wide-row strategy.
