I am not going to get into the virtues and pitfalls of conventional tillage versus no-till. Both practices are used around here. Everyone has their reasons for what they do. My one remaining uncle on this farm is nearing 88 years old and his brother/partner passed a little over a year back. We're not going to spend big bucks to go no-till with the future of the farm being in the family much longer is questionable. My deceased uncle had 4 boys and they could not wait to get out of Dodge when they graduated from high school. They now own 1/2 of the farm and all they can see is $$$$$$$$ from the sale of the farm. No desire to keep it in the family and operational. We did upgrade the old 70's CASE 5x18 plow to a much newer 6B vari-width last week though, so moldboard plowing will still be in the tillage program and I just help out and not on the farm payroll so labor costs are minimal. We purposely were looking for a WHITE plow, because the Case had Radex conversion bottoms on it and all the ware parts interchange. Today I am going to fabricate a hydraulic landing system on the plow so it will follow the tractor consistently on our sidehills no matter if I am turning furrows uphill or downhill. Loren

The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
