I agree with the lister determination. Obviously has two moldboard sides to it. I do remember a farm magazine article, late 50s, early 60s, about a humongous single bottom moldboard plow in MI that took a couple Cats to pull it, plowed over four feet deep, bringing up clay in a sandy field- like we had...mixing it together...making better soil out of it. We had bottom ground like that- leveled out the drainage ditch bank, which was mixed soil...grew much better crops than the rest of the field. We had 80 acres with marl and clay 2-3 feet down, sandy loam on top. Water table was 5 feet down....roots couldn"t get through the sand to reach it. Lots of acres across the ditch was owned by local bank- in the last few decades, ditch was deepened, all is tillable now.
