As you can already see, mistakes have been made...
1st, the Plow should have had (or may have had ?) Jointers or Cover-Boards, to cover the turned-down sod.. 2nd, you should never use anything that will "Work-Up" the sod. For that, we have always used a tool called a Soil Surgeon...it is a steel Drag with a nice set of 4" deep pivoting knives under it and plenty room on top to add weight ( or put rocks you find).. As it is pulled, the knives "Work" the grass down...NOT up..leaving a decent seed bed.. Using a Disc will then work IF you DO NOT allow it to work very deep..ONLY prepare a Seed Bed..not a bit deeper on this 1st year after Breaking Sod..
I am afraid that since you have used a "Roto-Tiller" type machine you have already pulled far too much UP .. I would disc the field when DRY and NOT very Deeply and hope I would re-bury enough of the sod to make a seed bed.. At this point, I would agree that Discing several times when the ground is Dry will eliminate most of the living grass..

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
