TO Plow
• Or 'Not To 7Plavi?
Part 31
Last week, we looked at why we Luse
the moldboard plow. Now rd like to
:discusssome alternatives, and the Situa-
tions where they may fit in.
-The intensity of =age :required
depends pithizally anthe mil -texture,
and to za lesser extent an previous soil
inanagement and -cropping qaractices. A
light, sandy soil :can temanaged with mo
rnflBge without Lsecrilicing yieki;
'toattempt:fluisonsleavy *Twaddle
r sty to -saythe least. As the .rjay con-
tent of the sail increases, the porosity
decreases and the sail strength and
.suscentthility to .compaction increases.
'The plow is Jilutr to -remain the most
cmnmon tillage implement on the -farm,
and ona elay �i1 it is still the best
choice. :On erodible mins, !however, the
.converstional moldboard plow leaves the
soiltoaexposedto mindandwater. 7or-
innately, the plow can le modified- fair-
ly .eatily to leave .some :residue on the
suiface. Metrash comers can Temov-
ed, and plowing ,.11epth reduced to leave

can le rzutlaidi, or removed Idtogether.
Thisritainsthe litingandainittering ac-
tion tot the plow, while reduting the tur-
.Mrigaction. Another roptban is to replace
the moldboard ant Share with 41 'mite
sweep, or a speciilliy atessiwd ltonserva
lion point". 'These are meryaffective, :but
they will 'change the -draft Of the plow.
SeverSraither pieces �f istinipmein are
available today for primaly Mae. The
chisel p]ow or 4fsiileaver" works well on
most soil types, provided it is not used
when the soil is -too wet. It is *quipped
with -either twisted „shovels, whie.h turn
and shatter the soil, or wide sweeps,
which work the -.entire width d the imple
ment, but :bury very itttIe'residue. A less
...'popular implement is the :offset disc. it
, las the advantage of turning up fewer
atones than the anoklboatx1 or chisel plow,
and it is almost impossible "to phg. It
does, however, tendlo tiny -more -residue
than the Chisel plow
°Fedi tillage ra. clay soilik-necessary to
-expoe the plow layp-r to frost action; it
is 'very difficiflt to achieve an acceptable
seedbed il these :soils are plowed in the
spring. Lighter textured Is, .however,

tage of leaving -tile residue never intact
