THE EROSION STOPPERS^
Now you can build up your soil while you
stop erosion with Brillion’s 14 models of Soil
Builders. These conservation tillage
machines slice through residue, then chisel
and ridge the soil. They increase water hold

Fight water and wind erosion.
Brillion Soil Builders are the one-trip mini
mum tillage tools that save fuel and cover
50% more acres compared to moldboard
plowing. See us for names of farmers who
have used Brillion Soil Builders. Available in
