I thought the two-way plow was the normal plow. One-ways are not common and seldom used in this neck of the woods.

Ramon, you're right the rollover or any two-way plow turns the first furrow on unplowed ground and leaves. With a one-way you end up with a double open furrow in the middle of the field (or land) or a double mound, depending which way you start. Of course, with a two-way you have to plow in the turn around areas on each end of the field.

Another thing, if you irrigate with furrow, you can plow with the furrow rather than plow across them, much smoother. IMO, two ways especially those mounted on the tractor are much more efficient in small fields. If you have large field and don't have to irrigate, a one-way might work as well. However, I'd probably want to use a two-way because one-ways never worked as well where I live.
