I've always moldboard plowed everything, corn stalks, soybean stubble, wheat stubble. Everyone is going to chisel plows now, are they better for breaking up the ground? I've always thought that moldboard plowing in the fall was the best. Ground always seems loose in the spring. Moldboard plowing does take some time, how much faster is a chisel plow? Right now I pull 4x18's with a JD 4440, I can average a little over 3 acres an hour. Whats the biggest chisel plow I could handle? 7 shank? ground is mostly clay, but not real bad, but do have some lighter soils. How many acres an hour could I do with a chisel plow?
