RAISED-BED HANDBOOK Outlined bed shaping principles apply to any scale of application. Regarding tractors and equipment, most references are given to smaller-scale operations, typically with one-row or two-row equipment. A ONE-PAGE REVIEW TO START QUICK 1) Bed shapers can be used with DIFFERENT soil -working strategies in DIFFERENT SOILS for the finest seedbed. Form beds before planting in seedbed soil . Form beds early for early planting or to avoid excessive tillage before BEDDING . 2) To form beds in loose seedbed soil , prepare field with conventional primary and secondary tillage equipment. Till deep enough for the bed height. Work-in field residue after harvest for most decomposition. If this did not occur, cut-up and work-in residue more, if needed. Field should be clean with no residue before bed shaping. This method is most common. 3) To form primary beds, prepare field with primary tillage to loosen soil and cut-up and work-in residue. Primary BEDDING helps bury residue.
BEDDING IN DIFFERENT SOILS Use raised beds in nearly any soil. Soil preparation methods before, during or after bed shaping can vary since different soils …
