Hay PACO Tillage practices vary widely across this country. Hope you read JD Seller's post.Vary straight forward and practical. I presume you were making some refrance to some of my pic. posts. I would like you to know that we do not plow our steeply sloped land until spring,to minimize erosion. We also contour plow, and strip crop these fields.

Our river flats are a differant story. Most all farmers with this land do use shank tillage equipment.In closing all I'm saying to you is that most all farmers know that they are the stewards of the land and none of them want to see their valuable land washed down the river.
