Central Indiana | Thanks for the inputs guys! Doesn’t cost us much to run one probably about $10 an acre at most. About 2.5bu corn and less than a bushel of beans at these prices so doesn’t seem too expensive to run. We have devestators and JD chopping rolls on the head this year so hopefully we’re going to be able to run our chisel this year. Need to get our fertilizer worked in some I think. I know some areas it doesn’t pay and others it will. We run a mulch finisher in the spring so we’re pretty much minimal conventional tillage. Don’t own a disc or a VT/HS disc anymore. I do feel like our crops were able to root down easier this spring and summer when it got abnormally dry in order to find the moisture so that’s one thing I like about ripping. I will agree that slicing a ripper shank through wet ground does the opposite of good! Appreciate the inputs again thank you. | |

Are there repercussions to ripping every year?
