Vertical till disk is an oxymoron

+1. I have seen an early Deere "VT" disk in flat and smooth soybean stubble and the result there was wavy, uneven seedbed. To me the VT disks are neither a good VT or a good disk. Like they slapped some small notched blades in a disk design they already had and called it VT.

Don't forget the Vertical in Vertical Tillage. I have seen nicest seedbeds with a great plains turbo till looking from the windshield and on hands and knees.

Rearranging a disc has been the most popular way for Deere, CaseIH and Landoll to get into the VT market without spending money on R&D. It worked because there are oodles of them out there. College buddy of mine bought 2 of the CaseIH disc/VT machines thinking that somehow the second one with a different model number would somehow be better than the first one.
