I know that's true, but I wonder why more CUT owners don't have a chisel plow. In my opinion, it is a very handy implement to have. You can put spikes on it to break up hard ground, or put long sweeps on it to cut weeds and vegetation, or smaller sweeps to cut some of the vegetation and break up the ground too.
I see too many people trying to break up hard ground with a light weight tandem disc, and that's a fool's errand unless it's a very small tract and multiple passes are no big deal. I know we don't have unlimited budgets, but most of us seem to get the OTHER tools we need, by hook or by crook.
I just think the chisel plow is a very under-appreciated tool that most people have never used and, therefore, don't understand.
I agree with pappy, I have an old Ferguson Field Cultivator which is basically a spring loaded chisel plow. I got it for my 8N and found it works great with my Kioti. Better
actually. I can run it deeper in harder ground and not struggle like I use to. It is a useful
tool and can be found at farm equip. auctions, hedgerows and the like. Even Sweet's has them. (A vendor on TBN) Follow with a disc and things would be better..
