Do they still make disk plows? I know that most modern farmers use chisel plows and minimum tillage, if any. If they don't, why not?

The only disc plow I've seen is built by IMT. You can't get them now because of the embargo.. The why not is because that the farmers don't need that type plow anymore. When it was made we were using lower hp tractors on smaller farms and needed something that would turn the ground with the tractors available.
Contrary to popular belief them old Ford and Ferguson tractors would not pull a double bottom turning plow in heavy soils, but they would pull a double disc turning plow.

I didnt read the questinn properly, I thought he was talking about what some people now call a plowing disk. THe proper term for what I want to sell is an offset disk, sorry.

My dad has, which I would like to take out of the pasture and restore, a big John Deere disk plow that needs some parts. However what it is and what everyone calls a disk plow may be different. I call it a disk plow. it looks like a molboard plow but instead of molboards there are severe curved disk blades in their place. My dad bought it but never liked it so it sits in our pasture near the woods. Can someone tell me if this is really called a disk plow or named something else and where I could find some parts. thank you
