S.W. Manitoba | Back in 2003 at the Kent County Plowing match they had a competition for disk rippers. They dug to find the compaction layer and all machines were set just below it. They had an Unverferth chisel plow, a JD 2700 and a 9709 Salford Wing plow. Each machine ran, then were dug up with a back hoe to check to see how each broke the compaction. The chisel plow did absoutly nothing. You could see the bucket jerk where every shank went. The 2700 did break it up but in large pieces. He said it was still hard digging. The Wing plow smashed it into small marble size pieces. Said it was like digging through sand. The 2700 left the surface rough which could be solved with better harrows. The salford left it smooth enough to plant right into which some guys around Chatham do. You've got a good Salford dealer near by. 2002 Yurke sold 17 Wing Plows. Take a look at them.
Take care,
