I believe they still turn under old alfalfa stands around here, although a plow in the field is almost non-existant, not the case 100 miles east of here where they still plow. Used to have sugar beets here, when the processing plant went under so did the beets. Went from several thousand acres to zero in one year. Not much true no-till here on irrigated ground, there is quite a bit on dryland. Some ridge till with furrow irrigation. Most of the tillage is done with large offset or tandem disks. I grew up on a vegetable farm in south Texas, we literally beat the ground to death, wasn't a clod less than a quarter inch in diameter anywhere. Not sure that is necessary now, but I know nothing about modern vegetable farming, never grew potatoes.
