Hi all,

Anyone out there using / created / adapted anything along the lines of zone till / strip till / unit etc. with their vegetable transplants and/or single row seeded crops?

I'm trying to figure out how to adapt some of the zone tillage technology that exists from the likes of Unverferth / Brillion / etc. to a scale that would work behind a lighter low horse power tractor.  Even the one row models that are available commercially would have our tractor (MF 135) doing wheelies all day long.  

I'd love to hear if anyone is using or developed these types of things.  

Also along these lines generally speaking is anyone out there working on high residue, minimum tillage systems sans herbicide?  Any luck with roller crimpers on your farms?

Thanks,

Brian
