Disc or Till Pasture?

[lazyhorsefarm]

I just moved into a property with approx 2.5 acres that is grown over. I want to turn that into a pasture area but there are some ruts/holes and I need to get the ground leveled. I haven't found anyone to disc the area, but have found someone who will come out and till with a tractor/tiller. Will that work or am I making a mistake by doing the wrong process?

Have you considered plowing then a disc or tilling.

Depending on the current surface both a disc and tiller might not be the best initial approach. You might have to make numerous passes to have an effect on the sod with either.

Yea, plowing and discing would be the better choice. Then you can seed with the pasture mix of your choice. A 3 point tiller won't do much in most cases. Get a great "massage" though bouncing on the tractor.
