Abstract

Previous chapters demonstrated the capability of (1) consistently producing as much or more corn from one twin row every 60in. as state-of-the-art best management practices can produce from two 30-in. rows; (2) producing another crop between the wide corn rows on the missing row or other half of the field without hurting corn yield; (3) improving vital components of soil health and ultimate sustainability of our most finite crop production resource—our arable soil. These improvements are enabled by an infinite source of productivity—incident sunlight, the photochemical energy source for photosynthesis, which enables the subsequent biosynthesis of another infinite source of productivity—atmospheric carbon dioxide in the current carbon cycle—two abundant, relatively inexpensive, but often unrecognized crop production inputs. This chapter focuses on how we, as capable human beings, can take what we’ve learned and put it all together, for mutually rewarding benefits for all.
