Had a large ripper run over our farm and to me it wasn't the thing to do. The soil on the hills got a lighter look to it. The ripper seemed to bring up dead soil and alot of clay. It was a big mistake in my view. It also brought up a whole lot of rocks like I've never seen before. The soil seems to have gotten harder since the farm has been rented out, I think due to the very large equipment being used and the excessive amount of fertilizer and chemicals being used. We never did things quite like that. We had decent crops but I got to say not like the crops that are coming off it now at an average 250 bu per acre corn and 60 or 65 bu per acre beans, some years even better. I still think our way was better for the soil cause I used to spread manure on the ground and raised corn, beans, oats, and alfalfa hay as a rotation. Now it's just corn and beans. Seem's to have alot more trouble with pests than I had. They seem to make alot more money too although that's because the prices have been better than I have ever seen in my life.
