I’ve never seen a disk plow in operation, very rare here. Modern Whishek disks are around.....
One person will consider a 4 inch stump huge; another doesn’t think a 10 inch stump is very big..... then there are shallow rooted or deep tap rooted trees, they work up different.
So it depends on what type of brush and trees you were clearing.
A moldboard plow or a chisel plow will lift and pull up a lot of those roots so you can get them out of the field. But they won’t work for a real tree stump, rooted mess. Just constantly trip or break. But this will allow you to clean up and clear up the ground the best.
For lots of big roots types of deals a heavy disk, or the disk plow you showed, that will work the ground and push down some of the roots and mess. It will roll over the worst, stubborn stumps. This doesn’t make the field perfect, but it will make it useable while the remaining trash is mostly buried and can rot. You would not want to work the ground very deep at all for a couple years, allow the junk below the surface to rot.
