DlO— Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 7,1984 GOODFIELD, 11. - DMI, INC., Goodfield, IL, recently announced the introduction of a new Turbo- Tiger II tillage tool. According to the manufacturer, the Turbo-Tiger II is the only one pass conservation tillage tool for 4-wheel drive tractors - that is designed agronomically from the ground up to meet the needs of all types of soils and field conditions. Bob Wiegand, DMI marketing director, states: “The Turbo-Tiger II is equipped with independently, hydraulically controlled on-the-go blades and shanks. The blades are 24” widely spaced discs that cut and mix surface residue unifor mly, permitting machine to follow combines. Residue is left long to create wicks and soil is left coarse to improve water absorption, minimize erosion and maximize decomposition... plus, help save the average 5 tons per acre soil loss.” Wiegand also said: “The Turbo- Tiger ll’s shanks have a unique patented Turbo-Point design with special wings that don’t just cut a narrow path, but instead create a lifting and twisting action to the soil between shanks, even in wet conditions. Turbo-Points also shatter plow soles to reduce compaction and maximize air and water exchange... permitting water to move within the soil to reduce ponding during wet seasons and to retain moisture for crops during dry seasons. Reduced compaction and shattered plow soles allow roots to penetrate deeper to reach moisture and nutrients which greatly improves plant growth and yields... yield increases of up to 8 to 12 bushels per acre... in fact, some farmers have reported profit increases of up to $54 per acre.” The DMI Turbo-Tiger II is available in a 5 shank, 12 disc model with a 12% ft. working SOYBEAN MASIWG ON YOUR FARM ALLEN SUMMERS GRAIN ROASTING DAVID N.
