This question has been argued time after time! And i laugh everytime i read comments online about it! How old timer says plow plow plow young farmer says dad still has one in the cornor of the shed im in my 30s and never plowed in my life and dont have a desire to learn! Me personally im 27 live in western pennsylvania in my little kid days dad moldboarded everything all we had then we got a chisel plow did both tried no till kinda worked the first year! Tried notilled on swamp ground that year it was worthless! My dad farms full time! I started my own farming a few years back work a fulltime job till someday have enough acers to support myself I hope! But what we learned is you have ground you can no till in and it works great especially corn after beans! Some ground you gotta plow! It gets hard! I just started renting another piece a guy went in the year before no tilled wall to wall on slopes guessing toward 30 percent or more in some places and thier 3 ft wash outs! My thought is everything has its place and some things work better than others! Thiers no ONE easy simple answer on how to farm every piece of ground and get a good yield! Thier more than one way to skin a cat!
