West Central MN | Learned something new today. Having plowed a 1,000 plus acres a year for decades, never heard of a attaching wires to bury trash. Found this from 1927 talking about wires and controlling corn borer of all things.

To help bury cornstalks, our IH plows had steel trashboards and then somewhere around the late 1970s? switched them out for the new plastic version that soil didn't stick to as bad.
