📋 Real Project Case

Corn Belt No-Till Field Compaction Mitigation

1,200-acre no-till corn-soy rotation in central Illinois

Challenge: Persistent surface ruts and reduced root penetration in 2022 wet season
Corn Belt No-Till Field Compaction Mitigation Persistent surface ruts Reduced root penetration (2022 wet season) Switched to 23.1R30 singles 15% lower inflation pressure + Real-time load monitoring Peak Pressure Reduction: 28% (P₁ − P₂)/P₁ × 100 Rut Depth Prediction: 1.7 cm (Measured: 1.9 cm) 20.8R42 duals High pressure → ruts 23.1R30 single Lower pressure → less compaction ~1.2 m spacing ~0.96 m footprint
