ND
I've been spraying it down and then hitting it twice with my Landoll VT. It doesn't turn up any root balls or make clumps but it does cut things up so that you get enough dirt movement around the planter to get a nice seed bed. It doesn't do a super good job at leveling groud.

I broke up some ground for a relative this last year that has never been farmed before. They wanted to plant corn into it and there was a few really uneven spots in the field. The disk didn't follow the contour of the ground very well there so it was basically straight sod. Before working the ground they were second guessing doing the tillage pass to save some money and thinking about just planting right into the sod. After seeing the difference in stand it was clear to all of us that the Landoll pass was time/fuel well spent.
