The Vertical Tillage attachment allows you to convert your Wil-Rich chisel plow into a more effective tool for heavy residue situations and wet ground. The vertical tillage attachment sizes residue and opens up wet ground to reduce drying time in the spring.
Why Vertical Tillage?
- Aerate and warm spring soil for earlier planting in cold and wet condtions
- Mix residue with soil to control erosion
- High-speed preparation of your field: 8-12 miles per hour (13-19 kph)
- Condition soil in high residue situations before or after fall tillage preparations
- Cuts through crop residue at high speed
- Less receptive to blade damage and plugging by mounting blades to individual shanks vs. gang-mounted style
- Uniform working depth across unit
- Cost savings – converts your chisel plow to a multi-purpose tool
