Ramon, Spinner plows operate the same way as conventional plows in every way except that they have the capability to work in both directions. I think the confusion came when I made the statement about "leaving holes and mounds". What I meant by that was, that on flood irrigated land, the operator cannot "go to sleep" and let that tractor "wander around" in the furrow while he is plowing, because this will leave an "uneven" texture to the plowed ground. Likewise, the plow has to be setup correctly so that the finished product is as smooth as a tabletop (both directions) and the plowing must be done deep enough as to leave no trash on the surface as this would impede the water flow later on in the season. I'm sure you have seen plowed ground that appears to have "rows". This uneven texture just doesn't work with flood irrigation without the ground first being leveled back out again. It is just simply easier to plow it correctly at the onset. Sorry if I confused you, Allan
