A single front or a wide front is all that 's used
here for the ditch irrigating we do. The rows
are on 32 in. centers which makes the marks
(ditches) on 32 in. as well. A narrow front will
cause more of the sides of the mark to sluff off
behind the tires as you go. If a guy needs to
pack the bottom of the marks so that the water
will 'carry' better then he will make passes
with a tractor alone. Using a single front you
will pack 3 rows per pass. If you use a wide
front then you need a toolbar with another
weighted tire on it to get the same number of
rows per trip. A narrow front isn't used for this
because of the sluffing.
