Excerpt from The Cultivation of Corn: Weed Control Vs. Moisture Conservation
The principal object and greatest value of corn cultivation on Brown Silt Loam is the destruction of weeds. Weedy corn probably suffers more from a lack of nutrients than from a moisture deficiency in this climate. Since cultivation is the only practical method of controlling weeds, the depth and frequency of corn cultivation should be determined by their growth. The growth of weeds should be prevented in so far as possible by shallow rather than by deep cultivation.
