Corn Planting Is Near

Case IH 9330 Tractor

Most of this work was done last fall.  This tractor is a 240 hp tractor which is good for pulling heavy discs and chisel plows.

Case IH Chisel Plow

I think this implement is used before planting corn.  Gets the year's detritus into the soil so that it can rot over the winter.

Case IH True-tandem 330 Turbo Disc

This implement is possibly used before sowing beans.

Keith's corn planter and grain drill are both no-till rated so tilling is not absolutely needed ahead of them.  My father had a wheel disc but no chisel plow.  I drove the disc ahead of the planter.  Things are different today.  That tractor looks like a "hummer" to me.  I am sure I would have liked to drive it.  The only thing missing for me is the Persian orange paint.
