I think our problem with outside rows is we don't get fertilizer out to the edge so well, we don't control weeds quite so well out to the edge, and we let grass grow right up to the corn which steals N from the corn early on......
If we treat that outside row like an inner row, it actually should produce better, as it gets more sunlight.
Lot of work on that in the past, strip cropping (not strip tilling). Put 6-12 rows of corn, then 6-12 rows of beans, then corn. The corn would yield better, but the beans worse. They even got to putting different varieties of corn, a shorter corn outside, taller ones in the middle of the 6-12 rows, so each corn plant would get more sun.....
The loss of bean yield, and the difficulty with planting times and weed control kinda set back the whole idea.
