So what are the big boys in your area using- around here it's been FC's for decades. Sure, there was that spurt for Danish tine harrows for a last pass before planting, but too many thought they should use it as a first pass after fall tillage, and that did not pan out- just didn't work the ground enough. Until I got the heavy offset, the only time I used a disc was after moldboarding alfalfa. Disc was too much maintenance with the rocks we have. I can count broken pieces on the FC's over the last 30 years- next to nothing. Always run with a mounted tine harrow behind and it makes a good seedbed. If I could afford only one machine- the FC would be it. Never understood the fixation on discs.
