VIEW Rick Hellman is testing this four-row fl ame weeder at his Burt, Iowa, organic farm. Two nozzles per row point at weeds; shields keep heat close to the ground. “The V4 to V5 stage is the earliest you can fl ame in soybeans and not hurt them,” he says. “I’m hoping to get at least another 10 bushels per acre with fl aming and cut at least one cultivation trip through the fi eld.” 16 SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2014 CHSINC.COM
