Depends on how much tractor work you need an excuse for!
If you like the soil when you turn it and need an excuse to plow...there you go! You'll still need a pass with a disk or something after that.
If the soil is loose enough for your liking a few inches down, and you're not trying to bring up better "top soil" a foot down, disking is about as easy as it gets. Multiple passes probaby and reducing the V on the last couple should get you close to a manageable soil.
Not sure of a chisle type or field cultivator small enough that would work with that, but probably out there - this would be easier than plowing, and still bring up some of the lower soil. Again, you'd probably want to break it up some after that.
Also, a cool way to cheat: just buy the cultivator; use it for tilling (obviously multiple passes to compensate width as well as working to a depth), a disk or drag wouldn't be bad after that though. Then plant your rows to an acceptable width to set the cultivator and use it for that too! BTDT, not ideal, but gotta love cheating out extra uses for an implement!

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
