Sounds like you have dream soil. I have Georgeville silt loam, also
very productive but tends to dry out quickly, unlike clay loam.
This company has various tractor-mounted equipment for
production vegetable farming; tillage (see the Yeomans plows!)
, bedding, hilling, plastic mulch laying, etc. I think they are the
only US dealer for the Yeomans plow - the single best plow/cultivator
made, the Soil Saver to follow second (for small-medium acreage
intensive operations). Their prices are right.
