A land plane, some people call it a "float" is perhaps 20 feet long with a blade in the middle with enclosed ends. It is used to fill minor depressions on flood irrigated land. The blade cuts off the high places and moves the soil to the lower places. It runs at a constant depth, that is you don't raise or lower it, the older ones did not have hydraulics and could not be raised or lowered on the go anyway, you had to get off the tractor and adjust it with a crank on either side of the blade. It leaves a more or less smooth surface. Don't confuse it with a road grader, as it will move more soil without it going around the ends, since it it enclosed. It's not an earthmover either. It is used to smooth the soil so that water will run down the furrows (row crops or vegetables) or spread evenly over the soil if the ground is bordered (alflafa, etc).
