Well, that peice of property I bought has the wheat off it now and I took a drive across it yesterday. Holy smoley! Just about took out the suspension on the truck. The guy that had rented it last year plowed it, hard and fast, poor job, then ran over it, hard and fast with a feild cultivator, same direction as plowed. They then seeded with a case 2290 and a 10' drill, nothing but ruts. Head lands are as bad as the rest of the feild. I want to hit it the right way and get that feild layed out right. Some ruts are deep, 10-14", its lighter soil, no way will I plow it, should i disc it once in the same direction as they worked it then again at an angle, or would i be better off doing it first time at an angle with the disc and then maybe go over it with a feild cultivator and harrow in the opposite angle? Never had to deal with a peice this messed up before, need some recommendations. Definatly was no "art" to this plowing job.
