Any of you midwest guys use something called a "rod weeder" for summer fallow? They're commonly used in the dryer parts of eastern Washington wheat country, where they still summer fallow. Basically a carrier like a tagalong cultivator, but with a square rod about 1" in cross section that runs crossways about 2 inches under ground level, and rotates (driven by the ground wheels of the contraption). Cuts off the weeds below ground level, while leaving the surface crust pretty much undisturbed, and supposedly greatly conserves moisture in the soil profile.
