Southwest Illinois | We have a CaseIH 2500 7 shank no-till ripper. We bought it to work a few hundred acres of rolling ground each year. If you can keep it under 6 mph it will leave a real nice surface. Our biggest challenge is we have more HP than we need on it. I have planted beans directly into it the following spring. We don't no-till any corn but I think in the right environment that you could, but I think it would be a stretch. Heavy clay or mucky type soils will probably heave more and probably leave the surface rougher. We run it in corn stalks and then vertical till lightly in the spring. Some like to move a bit more surface and we have disc rippers for those situations. | |
