Seneca Kansas 66538 | Actually a turbo till is another tool in your toolbox. The turbo till type of tools will mulch heavy corn residue in the fall and leave you will a table top smooth seedbed. It can be used in the spring also before planting to help open up and dry out soil. We use one on really heavy corn residue and it will as said leave you with a very nice level seedbed which you cannot achieve with a disk. The turbo till tool can be ran as fast as you can pull it unlike a disk which if pulled fast will ridge your soil profile excessively. Turbo tills arent for everyone, especially if you have nice rolling well draining soils. We find in flat profiles that dont drain perfectly, the turbo till will help get things rolling in the spring. Reduces residue cover and also warms the soil drastically in the spring. Today I was going over some ground with the turbo till that I had worked last fall with a disk because of some ruts left from the combines and its leaving it nice and smooth. The tool as I said is another tool in your toolbox and has its own uses. You just have to decide if its a tool that you need or want in your toolbox. | |
