[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1621993, member: 27848"] When I retired, I setup my operation on 6' since I am working smaller acreage with smaller equipment. Having the 8' harrow works nice as it covers both sides of my "workings". While we are kicking around harrows, If you have crop residue on the surface, any harrow will "collect" it. If I get my speed up, which is easily done at the harrowing stage, it will bounce across the ground and let the residue out in small clumps, rather than one big blob ever so often and, unlike a 16' JD batwing spike tooth I had, won't plow up a big wad of soil-residue that you have to come back and disperse. Other thing I have done with lots of residue on the surface was to come back with a rotary mower and scatter any accumulations that seem to be so large as to interfere with planting. Course I'm working heavy clay and usually, the only time you can work it, is when it's dry and hard and complications are part of it. [/QUOTE]
