I made an assumption this week that maybe I shouldn't have. I assumed a crow foot packer was something I needed. In my post yesterday the idea of a field cultivator was put out there but I don't know much about them. So given that I have pretty good topsoil with only a few low spots that get into clay and mostly I don't go into those spots. I can use either a chisel plow or a mold board plow, depending on conditions and the type of residue on the field. I follow that with a 25' disk that takes it down to a good enough bed in MOST places but does leave some clods in the heavier parts of the field. At this point it is good enough for my corn planter but I would like to break up some of those clods and make a finer seed bed for my older drill.
I have available to buy a crow foot packer or cultimulcher, field cultivator with spikes on bars or rolling baskets. Which is my best option do you think?
