Subject: RE: Chisel Plow vs Disc Ripper


Michigan
We switched from disk rippers to a big heavy chisel. Really like how it performs. 4" twist shovels move a lot of dirt and do a good job at mixing trash. The Landoll we have is built strong. We normally run 8-10" deep but you can bury this tool like a ripper if your want to, you just probably won't be able to pull it. I've yet to see a compaction problem from not ripping our on our soil types.

Here's a pic of running over 180 bpa corn stalks that had been smashed by a rolling harrow. Came back and field cultivated once and planted no problem. Normally earlier in the fall when it's dryer we will disk in front of chisel if there is a lot of residue
