**Purpose:**

**Select the Purpose:** Water Erosion , Wind Erosion , Manage Snow ,
Wildlife Habitat

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  Seasonal crop residue requirements, by field and soil type, for erosion
  control.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------

-   Residue will be evenly distributed across the surface of the soil.

-   Snow management requires a minimum of 6 inches of stubble heights
    before snowfall, and will remain standing.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   As crops are rotated, the following amounts of air dry crop residue
    are to be maintained on the soil surface throughout the critical
    wind erosion period from [     ]{.underline} through
    [     ]{.underline}.

  On irrigated crops, the crop residue may be incorporated into the soil
  before the end of the critical erosion period if other planned measures
  will control erosion. This may be the green growth of the next crop.

  **Average pounds of air dry residue produced by crops.**

  The following estimates of average residue amounts produced by crops
  can be used as a guide for successful implementation of a residue
  management program.

  Tillage during the management period shall be limited to methods that
  maintain the needed residue on the surface. The following information
