I have a field of last year's corn that needs to be plowed for hay planting...
after I plow I was wondering what type of discs to use to prepare the ground for planting
i have a set of drags (spring tooth harrow) which i plan on using to level and break up some clumps but i figure i should finish it with discs.
what type of discs do i need? I figure I need tandem but don't know how heavy/how big of discs.
also, i have a MF 265 and a MF 1080 (60 and 80 horse) - what width discs should i get?
i know the standard seems to be 10 hp per foot but people seem to run discs much wider than that...
the soil is decently heavy clay...a slight hill but not much at all...and the field is wide open.
thanks for the input.
