I dunno, Not sure if I would want to drive across that field in the last picture perpenducular to the plowing direction. Looks like some bad ridges and furrows to me.

Looks like the kind of soil that makes the tractor work for a living. Soybean stubble is usually mellow and corn stubble comes up chunky. Jim
 
That's just old black "bottom-ground" dirt. It never dries all the way out and tends to turn over a little "slabby" but is as soft as a baby's bottom (or at least sand). We have just a very few acres of this soil on our farm in Indiana but would surely trade off the hard white clay that we contend with for more black dirt if were somehow possible.
 
Yes, very straight. The oldtimers in our family use to step off the field and flag it with a jacket on the fence if we were starting the land in the middle. The next year we would start the land at the fence (you know, sort of inverse from year to year). You best not have the dead furrow or the fence line off more than one round at the end of the task, or you would face more from the "elders" that you would want to deal with.
