I am looking to the plough to help against my black grass problem.
I currently use a five furrow plough on medium to heavy loam, with 180 hp, set at fourteen inches.
This ploughing that I'm planning to do will be post harvest, so ground conditions should be good, but time being at a premium.
Would I get better furrow closure with six furrows set at twelve inches ?
Would the extra furrow increase draft greatly at this reduced furrow width?
Thoughts on this greatly appreciated.
