Once the ground is plowed, we roll it down with a roller Harrow. The ground may get worked two or three more times before it is land planed and planted. Our Adobe clay dirt takes a lot of work to get it broken down into a decent seed bed.
 
I will use either a disc, field cultivator, roller Harrow. Whichever tool is best fit for the job at hand .
 
Thats is a nice outfit . I found a big roller last fall to go behind my disc and that did a nice job . Would like to find and roller harrow . When the are bad I hook on the lely

Funny how names change for equipment around the country. the roller harrow Delta shows is what we call a cultimulcher. The rollers if pulled behind like SV's picture would be called a crows foot packer and the other a solid packer. Both used around here depending on the dirt. solid is usually used on heavy dirt like clay and the other used on some of both sand and lighter clay.
And now they have big rollers like 3-4 feet in diameter and from 20-50 foot wide they use to roll corn and beans after planting before they come up. Helps with the stones and makes the ground flat so you can cut closer to the ground on beans. Flex head will cut about an 1" to 1-1/2" if rolled and head is set right.
 
Those big solid steel rollers are getting popular around here guys pull em Behind a big chisel plow with sweeps on in the spring for seedbed prep before small grains . Some of them you can fill with water and use to mash rocks in on hay fields
 
The mountains are getting it as we speak. The valley floor is just overcast,with low hanging clouds obscureing the mountains
