I am thanking about getting a rotary tiller for my Ford 4000 diesel and want to make sure I get a good one and need your help once again.
I have about 15 acres of weed eaten rock embedded clay soil that I want to transform into a hay field and/or vegetable plots. It had rotary cutters used on it once a year up to 3 years ago then nothing. Now thistle tree/bushes (Orange Osage)are growing fast and are about 3-4 inches thick. I assume I will need to get the roots out as well as turning the soil?
What steps should I use?
I'm not sure how to make this miracle from garbage to usable soil and what implements would be best?
I do know that I will use a tiller for smaller plots if its not the best for the acres.
Of course money is scarce.
