Sunny Slope Orchard's picture

I have not given that much thought since I just made my drill as a one time project for my particular use. I only have to deal with fairly fine residue when I plant which is no problem. But I suspect that for heavy residue you would need to mimic standard no-till drill designs which use paired coulters slightly angled to simultaneously cut through residue and create a furrow. You would also need to use press wheels to close the furrows rather than the scraper blades I use which would clog with residue. Good luck,

Bill

Albert: I am Bill Spurlock, farm hack user Sunny Slope Orchard. I happened to notice that when I click on your name in this forum MY user profile came up, even though the URL says "http://farmhack.net/users/albert-rogers"

Somehow your profile got replaced by mine.
